They are native Portuguese-speakers and are also known as Tapebano and Perna-de-pau people. Before official recognition as Indians in 1993, they were classified as mixed-race peasants. They trace their descent from the Potiguara, Tremembé, Cariri, and Jucá peoples, who spoke Tupi languages. Background The Tapeba people live on federally identified and delimited, but still not fully demarcated, indigenous lands in Caucaia, Ceará, in the Brazilian Northeast. In addition to indigenous blood, most Tapeba have significant European and, to a lesser extent, African racial heritage. Before their official recognition by Brazil's Foundation for the Indian in the 1990s, they had little history as a coherent indigenous identity.
