The Kapinawâ are an Indigenous people of Buíque, Pernambuco in eastern Brazil. In addition to their primary residence in Buíque, they are also found in Tupanatinga and Ibimirim municipalities.[1] They are descended from the historical Paratió, who were settled in the Aldeia do Macaco.[2] They have been defending their territory from land-grabbers since the mid-1970s.[3]
