Most people now have a decent understanding of the indigenous Kayapo tribes. In some ways I can connect with the Kayapo and their world. For instance, My parents changed houses due to land being developed on. Some peoples situations may allow for a better change than others.
When land started to be colonized in the Amazon it affect them, The Kayapo were often in situations where they would have to give up the territory and land that they had. This turned out to be a negative outcome for them. When my town started to develop on new land further and further on the outskirts of town, my family got a new home. For those who owned small houses or property on that land,they were sort of pushed out.
In my school and schools I previously attended, we usually had to use dictionaries and encyclopedias as research tools. Now, in our more modern culture we simply grab our phones or computers and search the Internet for the answers to our questions. Which brings me to another similarity, our culture ,along with the Kayapo's culture both have been through periods of progression. There was a time when the Kayapo used primitive hunting techniques and weapons, they have recently started hunting more efficiently by using more modern methods and weapons , such as guns.
The Kayapo's culture isn't much different from many other cultures we see today. It's clear that indigenous areas of the world go through change as well. Not all change is good change, but even then people will still progress. Adapting to change is a way that we, as people ,use to survive.
