Tricarico00aIdentity signs of Sami and Satere-Mawe: induction factors for the indigenous ethnic tourism.  uhttp://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S1982-61252022000100402&lang=es0 v163 aThis study aims to analyze the identity signs of the culture of the indigenous peoples Sateré-Mawé (Amazonas-Brazil) and Sámi (Tromsø-Norway), as possible contributions to the ethnic tourism, starting from the complex cultural relationship arising from each people. Taking into consideration the symbolic traits of these two cultures, the study proposes a methodological and theoretical perspective of a descriptive and exploratory nature, based on the dialogic suggested by Edgar Morin (2007), which allowed us to weave a network of conversation with another knowledge of ethnographic approach, based on case studies. The data collection took place in two phases. At first, a bibliographic research was carried out on the Ebsco host and Scielo database platforms to support the theoretical basis. The second phase was carried out locally, where the research is conducted, with 30 participants aged between 18 and 80 years, divided into groups from the Sateré-Mawé and Sámi peoples. Such peoples are concentrated in the metropolitan area of the city of Manaus and in Tromsø, Norway, respectively. The narratives collected in this period were interpreted from the theoretical framework adopted, in which we used Content Analysis (Bardin, 2016). Thus, we conclude that the signs used in rituals, crafts, graphics, drinks and food are driving forces of ethnic tourism with a focus on sustainable development. This arises from indigenous cosmology anchored in the natural environment of the forest as a means of survival. In this direction, we point to the need to safeguard the material and the intangible heritage of the indigenous people of the regions under study.  a1982-6125
