In the late 1960s the Waiwai, that are famous for their search expeditions seeking isolated indigenous groups, came into contact with some groups living at Turuni river managing to take the most of it residents to Kanaxen evangelic mission in British Guiana. In this dissertation I intend to reconstruct a history that has been told me several times by Tikti, a man that was born at Turuni but have raised his children among the Waiwai. By telling about migrations, conflicts and exchange of people and goods he places his difference in respect to the Waiwai by showing a particular trajectory constituted by specific relationships and places and which qualifies him as Txikyana. I will show how the current attempt of one of his sons, Xokokono, to form a village at the place where his father used to live follows the movement described by these trajectories, where the memory of places and alliances indicates with whom and where to live. Key-words: Ethnology, Guianas, Txikyana, Waiwai, Memory, Shamanism
