Tupi people of the Pernambuco-Paraíba coast around Olinda and Itamaracá who allied with the Portuguese against rival nations; pushed inland by the 18th century, Tabajara descendants in Ceará and on the southern Paraíba coast have organized since 2008 to seek FUNAI land recognition.
The Tabajara were driven inland and absorbed (a remnant survives in Ceará and Paraíba today); the Caeté were declared enemies of the faith after the Sardinha affair and all but exterminated in punitive wars by the 1570s.
