Abstract
This now extinct Stone Age tribe was first contacted in 1954 in southern Brazil. They were nearly the last group of nomadic hunters in the New World. A sizeable section of the article is devoted to their toois and weapons, clothing, and personal ornaments, with detailed descriptions of the production of axe-heads, woven slings, beads, labrets, etc. -- AATA
