Abstract

The primary objective of this article is to socio-legally analyze the body as indigenous territory and the power relations generated by logospiracy in the (de)construction of the spiritual bond between indigenous peoples and their ancestral land. The methodology is based on historical-dialectical materialism, structured through the confrontation of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis, adopting a qualitative, theoretical, bibliographic, and documentary approach. The results demonstrate that the indigenous body functions as a living map of spiritual and historical relations, whose integrity is threatened by contemporary logospiratic offensives, such as the Time Frame thesis (Marco Temporal) and PEC 215. The discussion highlights that these attacks seek to dismantle the sacred bond to facilitate predatory exploitation in the Amazon. It is concluded that indigenous resistance, through the affirmation of the right to the word and the Indigenato Thesis, is essential for maintaining Well-Living and human dignity. As a recommendation, the study proposes the consolidation of public policies recognizing the indigenato and the strengthening of legal strategies, such as the reversal of the burden of proof in socio-environmental disputes, aiming to safeguard the physical, cultural, and metaphysical continuity of original peoples against the symbolic and material violence of logospiracy.
