Talk:Indigenous peoples in Uruguay

Untitled

 * welcome to Wikipedia! I'd want to offer you some information and resources about the topic of the indigenous peoples of Uruguay. To start, the coverage of this topic is not fully comprehensive, but actually we could say there is a big gap of knowledge about it in Wikipedia. It is still under investigation by anthropologists regarding the prehistoric indigenous peoples that inhabited Uruguay at the time of settlement of the Americas but also the known peoples at the time of contact with European settlers.
 * About the resources, most of the time, the sources other than in English are "superficial" and broad, but generally don't go in detail over the topics of this subject, so you may have to read (or translate) sources in Spanish language to offer a more in-depth view of the subject.
 * About the indigenous peoples in general:
 * Consens, Mario (2003). El pasado extraviado. Prehistoria y arqueologia del Uruguay. Montevideo: Linardi y Risso. - broadly: the prehistoric Uruguay, from the first settlement of humans to the European arrival.

 * Araújo, Orestes (1911). Historia de los Charrúas y demás tribus indígenas del Uruguay. Montevideo: Librería Cervantes - it has been cited many times in the past, so it could be worth to check it up
 * Meltzer, David J. (2009). First peoples in a new world. Colonizing Ice Age America. University of California Press. ISBN 978-0-520-25052-9 - it is not precisely about Uruguayan indigenous, but it could bring up some context to the early settlement of the Americas

Resistencia: Universidad Nacional del Nordeste, 17-19 de septiembre de 2009. - A conference whose findings ended up contributing to Jaime&Viegas Barros (2013).
 * Fiorotto, Daniel Tirso (2005) "Un chaná que habla su idioma"; La Nación, 26 de marzo de 2005, Suplemento El Campo: 5. - Its relevance lies in that this was the first time that was publicly recognized that the Chaná language was not a dead language for two centuries, but an indigenous language that survived around 200 years of high pressure of the dominant European language (Spanish) after it was passed from one generation to another within a family due to the discrimination and stigmatization of the indigenous.
