This paper discusses the history of the Kaingang indigenous group that is located in Linha Glória Indigenous Land, in Estrela, Taquari Valley, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and is focused on their movements in the Kaingang traditional territory. Through this research, we intend to show that this group, despite of having been placed in the outside of the indigenous lands taken by the Brazilian National State, where reside many of their relatives, continued to experience cultural practices of Kaingang tradition. The main objetive of this study is also to demonstrate that these indigenous people have been protagonists of their own historicity and the senses with which they involve their territoriality have strong relations to the Kaingang traditional cosmology, and this is a true cultural and heritage richness for Taquari Valley.
