The aim of this presentation is to discuss the importance of the occupation of the so called meaningful places in Amazonia, such as rapids and waterfalls, in the development of regional networks which were archaeologically materialized by the concentration of different ceramic styles in the same site, and possibly through the appearance of new ceramic styles. We further argue that the economic viability of some of these places – and we present here the Teotônio site as an example - did not...
