Tupi of Brazil

Joao, a stamp collector in Brazil, sent these wonderful cards showing Tupi material culture displayed by a museum. The Tupi lived on the east coast of Brazil at the time of Portuguese contact; their numbers declined and only a few remain today.
There is also a catalog for this museum exhibition (all in Portuguese):

Joao also sent a bonus, a stamp showing the Yanomami! This tribe is well known to American anthropologists and has been researched since the 1960s. They live in both Brazil and Venezuela, but have been heavily impacted by forest development.

Big thanks to Joao!!
