• Abstract:

  The critique of colonialism in the

  Americas is a new epistemological perspective

  that is configured as a research program and aims

  to question the colonialism of knowledge on the

  part of Europeans. It is with this epistemological

  matrix that one intends to carry out the studies

  of the Pataxó Indigenous Games, in order to

  give active voice to the subaltern, subject of its

  history. This is the proposal of the perspective

  defined as Decolonial, aiming to empowering

  the social actors, giving them voice and being

  heard, that is, to tell their story about the different

  perspective of that told by the Europeans. Thus,

  games are not an activity having an end in itself,

  but rather as a strategy of building and affirming

  their cultural identity, giving them visibility and

  recognition as intangible cultural heritage.
