The uses of the idea of autochthony to represent the inhabitants of dispossessed lands by settler colonialists has turned into an anthropological quarrel about its ethical, political, and epistemological adequacy. This happened because of the polysemic, and often contradictory definitions of ethnicity applied in anthropological theory to address highly complex and asymmetric contexts of social relations and native discourse. This entry emphasizes how an essentialist notion of autochthony misrepresents the ethnicity of Indigenous Peoples. A reference to the Amerindian perspectivism in Lowland South America will be made in this regard to better clarify the argument.
