The ceramic object serves as a marker of time and establishment of the Amazonian indigenous peoples. It is characterized as a completely manual craft and performed by women, transmitted in a value-related way, from generation to generation. This ceramic making is present in the Baniwa culture, in the Upper Rio Negro, being part of its traditions and artistic manifestations, occupying prestige a mong the indigenous. How ever, the cultural transformations that came with modernity, have diminished the ceramic production among this people, dueto various causes and motivations. This time, I established as objective of this work to verify the political and sociocultural developments present in the ceramic making, as well as to identify the history of these social agents and the existing barriers in this process. To conduct this research, Baniwa potters were interviewed, whose narratives offered the main subsidy for this work.
