description This article reveals an investigation carried out on the production of ancestral thoughtsfrom the rituals of many native populations of America (Abya Yala) in what has been called bythe authors “Epistemologies of fire”. Here their ways of production, search and transmission ofknowledge are set which, from the ancestral, have been used by indigenous communities for theconstruction of a community, privileging how each being thinks of itself inside a world view anda cosmic intelligence1 that allows for bases to be laid to confront the idea of internal and externalseparation, that has been pursued by human beings since the western construction of the world.Continuing with the idea elaborated by other authors of a pluriverse (a world where many worlds can fit), these epistemologies based in the recognition of diversity contribute as well to the construction of an academic polyphony that can recapture these native sciences to integrate their knowledge and the way of producing them to expand the perspectives in Social Sciences. Continuing with the idea woven by other authors of a pluriverse (a world where many worlds fit),these epistemologies based on the recognition of diversity also contribute to the construction of anacademic polyphony that can take up these native sciences to integrate their knowledge and way toproduce them to broaden the perspectives in the Social Sciences.An immersion work was developed using learning and description methodologies specific to thevillages with which the work was carried out. This allowed us to carry out an exercise in carefullistening to the spoken word of the elderly (knowledgeable grandparents) and participation in their rituals, which are understood as ancestral  pedagogies.

Aqui se configuram suas formas de produção, busca e transmissão de saberes que, desde os ancestrais, têm sido utilizados pelas comunidades indígenas para a construção de uma comunidade, privilegiando como cada ser se pensa dentro de uma visão de mundo e de uma inteligência cósmica1 que permite bases a serem lançadas para enfrentar a ideia de separação interna e externa, perseguida pelo ser humano desde a construção ocidental do mundo. Continuando com a ideia elaborada por outros autores de um pluriverso (um mundo onde cabem muitos mundos), essas epistemologias baseadas no reconhecimento da diversidade contribuem também para a construção de uma polifonia acadêmica que possa recapturar essas ciências nativas para integrar seus conhecimentos e o modo de produzi-los para ampliar as perspectivas nas Ciências Sociais. Continuando com a ideia tecida por outros autores de um pluriverso (um mundo onde cabem muitos mundos), essas epistemologias baseadas no reconhecimento da diversidade também contribuem para a construção de uma polifonia acadêmica que pode tomar essas ciências nativas para integrar seus saberes e formas produzi-los para ampliar as perspectivas nas Ciências Sociais. Foi desenvolvido um trabalho de imersão utilizando metodologias de aprendizagem e descrição específicas das aldeias com as quais o trabalho foi realizado. Isso nos permitiu realizar um exercício de escuta atenta à palavra falada dos idosos (avós conhecedores) e participação em seus rituais, entendidos como pedagogias ancestrais.
