Abstract

This paper intends to track the naming criteria for dogs among the Chané. Links between onomastics and diverse cultural contexts are thus analysed, such as the daily treatment and attitudes towards dogs, mythic symbolism, etymology, human names, names of domestic pets, and taxonomic classification. In a comparative perspective, meaningful relationships are also verified with the dynamics of ethnic relationships and mythologies of Chaco ethnic group.
