As drogas do sertão e a Amazônia colonial (1677-1777)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-09-20) POMPEU, André José Santos; CHAMBOULEYRON, Rafael Ivan; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7906172621582952; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1150-5912
The present work is centered on the economic activity of drugs in the sertão, considered as the main economic activity in the Amazon during the colonial period. During the 20th century, it was agreed in much of historiography that this economic activity was under a missionary monopoly, mainly by the members of the Society of Jesus. And that, after the expulsion of the Jesuits, this predominance fell under the settlements of Indians created during the reign of D. José I, almost as direct heirs of the Jesuit monopoly. This thesis proposes a review of this perspective, seeking to demonstrate the active participation of other subjects in this economic activity, especially individuals. From the analysis of the sources, it is possible to highlight the participation of these subjects in the activity of drugs in the hinterland, and, at different times, it is possible to see the predominance of these individuals at the expense of both missionaries and canoes in Indian settlements. The present work is focused on the relationships, exercised in the activity of drugs in the sertão, within the colony itself, in a space commonly known as the Portuguese Amazon.

Planta-me no pó e não tenhas de mim dó: agricultura no Grão-Pará setecentista (1730- 1822)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2017-12-18) BARBOSA, Carlos Eduardo Costa; NUNES, Francivaldo Alves; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4125313573133140
The eighteenth century is an important moment for agriculture in Grão-Pará, through various documentary sources, we could highlight the process of occupation of the Tocantins river gutter, a region that could be understood as the first densely populated agricultural circle under the dominion of Belém, an influence observable by the territorial organization and the rearrangement of the family units in relatively autonomous structures of production and consumption, as part of the agrarian project, which was characterized by the introduction of new productive techniques, incorporation of new lands to agriculture followed by new genera and cultivation methods. The agrarian project reflected on the various subjects that made up the rural world of Paraense throughout the 7th Century, mainly in the Tocantins River valley region due to the proximity of Belém. In this region, we observe colonist migration, miscegenation, and the dispersal process as factors that contributed to generate families with endogenous preconditions to live and produce without difficulties in the Amazonian environment, reproducing only by the work of its members. In this sense, this dispersed population will seize the possible spaces and develop agro-extractive activities. What we need to understand clearly is that colonial agriculture balances within a diverse range of influences that determine its conditions and characteristics, as well as perceive the multiple composition of the rural world. In this sense, this paper seeks to emphasize the participation of this dispersed population, contributing to an understanding of the complexity of colonial society organization and dynamism in the region of the Tocantins River Valley.

A teia de relações entre índios e missionários. A complementaridade vital entre o abastecimento e o extrativismo na dinâmica econômica da Amazônia Colonial
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-08) RAVENA, Nírvia; MARIN, Rosa Elizabeth Acevedo
This paper analyzes the economic dynamics of the Amazon in the colonial period through the description of social relations between Indians and missionaries built during this period. The analysis shows the complementarity between the supply and extraction highlighting specific ways that these activities have taken in the region. The article presents domesticity, reciprocity and redistribution as key elements in the reproduction of indigenous customs within the missionary settlements. On the other hand, it also demonstrates the role that global market demand for "drogas do sertão". For these groups, this demand caused an abrupt decimation of indigenous populations that were the real people responsible for the maintenance of life in Colonial Amazonia.
