Resumo

This article focuses on the Qom community of Colonia Aborigen Chaco, Argentina. Specifically, it aims to present certain reflections on the value of the Qom language as an emblem of identity for this indigenous group. In this regard, we consider. How does the Qom language operate in Colonia Aborigen Chaco? What relationship does the language have with Qom identity? In an attempt to address these inquiries, adopting the theoretical framework of anthropological linguistics, the notion of identity will be explored, considering that this community is deeply marked by historical processes of violence and repression.
