Sumario: The present proposal is consolidated as an analysis of the narrative “Massacre do Urubuã” narrated by Adilino Francisco Apurinã Itariri, of the Apurinã ethnic group, Vera Cruz Community (Água Preta Indigenous Land / Inhari / Igarapé Água Preta, Municipality of Pauini-State of Amazonas). This narrative was published by Schiel (2004) in a PhD thesis in Social Sciences of UNICAMP with the title “Old Trunk: Stories Apurinã. For the corpus chosen, the objective presented is to discuss the importance of trauma in the collective oral narrative as literary testimonial writing, understanding the Apurinan narrative as the object of culture of the Apurinã people, and, therefore, a memorial space presented as a ossibility of translation of the traumatic relation to the narration of the violations suffered by members of the Apurinã ethnic group. The proposal is anchored in studies by authors who discuss trauma as: SELIGMAN-SILVA (2003), GINZBURG (2008), AGAMBEN (2014/2007), REGADAS LUIS(2007), SARMENTO-PANTOJA (2014) and others who support theoretically the analysis.
