The main objective of this thesis is to analyze/discuss the “openness” of six Jê peoples - Akroá, Xakriabá, Gueguê, Xavante, Timbira and Southern Kayapó -, to the others, in this particular case, to the White people or Portuguese-Brazilian, in regions of the current “Planalto Central do Brasil” (Central Brazil Highlands) in the 18th century. To write this paper, I basically used archival sources which were produced by the Portuguese Crown agents and stowed at Ultramarino Historical Archive. The texts were read according to the evidential paradigm, besides making use of specialized literature and but also from the relation between structure and event proposed by Marshall Sahlins. The openness which was desired by the Jê peoples could be noticed both in the practice of warlike incursions and within the alliances, and it must be understood taking account of issues related to Indigenous and Indigenist policies.
