# Marius Barbeau

Charles Marius Barbeau ou Joseph Frédéric Charles Barbeau (Sainte-Marie-de-Beauce, 5 de março de 1883 - Otava, 27 de fevereiro de 1969), foi um antropólogo, etnólogo e folclorista do Canadá. É considerado o fundador da antropologia canadiana.

## Vida

É considerado o fundador da antropologia. Ele é mais conhecido pela defesa da cultura popular de Quebec, e por sua exaustiva catalogação da organização social, narrativas e tradições musicais, e artes plásticas dos povos de língua Tsimshianic na Colúmbia Britânica (Tsimshian,Gitxsan e Nisga'a), e outros povos da Costa Noroeste. Ele desenvolveu teorias não convencionais sobre o povoamento das Américas.
Barbeau é uma figura controversa, pois foi criticado por não representar com precisão seus informantes indígenas. Em seu trabalho antropológico entre os Tsimshian e Huron-Wyandot, por exemplo, Barbeau estava apenas procurando o que ele definiu como histórias "autênticas", sem implicações políticas. Os informantes muitas vezes não estavam dispostos a trabalhar com ele por várias razões.
