The article presented here aims to reflect the ways of producing and living of the indigenous Kaigang, considering the practices and knowledge of the collectivity of Gyró village, located in the rural interior of the county of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul. Indigenous practices and knowledge are considered here as social technologies that need to be rescue, resigned and visualized as strategies against hegemonic in the face of the dominant logic. The study consisted of na exploratory research that combined bibliographic research, documentary research and empirical research with participatory methodological perspectives such as participant observation. The article consists of three sections: in the first section we will deal with the indigenous issue in Brazil from a historical and post-colonial point of view; in the second section we conducted an approach on the importance of Kaigang cosmology for the production of social technologies and in the third and final section we brought some results of the research reflecting on the limits and challenges of the Kaigangs indigenous in ensuring their ways of producing and living in the new territory.
