Answer:

The similarity between the Nambicuara and other indigenous peoples was the dependence of nature for their survival, the difference was that the Nambicuara were nomadic peoples, while the other indigenous peoples used to have a permanent home.

Step-by-step explanation:

Brazil has about 817,963 indigenous people, divided into more than 300 different ethnicities. Each indigenous ethnic group has its own characteristics, culture and history. Among these, one of the most studied and commented on indigenous peoples is the Nambicuara, who currently live in the Brazilian cerrado and in the Amazon rainforest. The main peculiarity of this indigenous tribe is the nomadic nature, as they used to move the tribes wherever there was a need, especially food resources.
