Entre costas brasílicas: o tráfico interno de escravos em direitura a Amazônia, c.1778-c.1830
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-09-13) SANTOS, Diego Pereira; LAHON, Didier André Roger; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1360485249187891
After the end of the monopoly drilled by the so-called pombalina company, strategically designed for the Amazon during the second half of the eighteenth century, emerge an internal slave trade by sea in directness to these stops. This slave trade was seen by royal authorities as a danger to the survival of their businesses and agriculture. On the other hand, there were many merchants and residents of the northern area of the colony and province that received the willingly African labor coming from Brazilian coastal areas. In this dissertation, from that internal trafficking of slaves, I realize the great importance of this slave trade to Amazon looking for reflect on their mechanisms of functioning and reproduction.

Inherited hemoglobin disorders in an Afro-Amazonian community: Saracura
(2012-07) CARDOSO, Greice de Lemos; TAKANASHI, Silvania Yukiko Lins; GUERREIRO, João Farias
The most common hemoglobinopathies, viz, hemoglobins S and C, and α-and β-thalassemias, were investigated through the molecular screening of 116 subjects from the community of Saracura, comprising fugitive African slaves from farms of the municipality of Santarém, in the west of Pará State, Brazilian Amazon. The observed frequency of the HBB*S gene (0.9%) was significantly lower than that encountered in other Afro-derived communities in the region. Concomitantly, the absence of the HBB*C allele has been reported for most of the Afro-Amazonian communities thus far studied. As remnant populations of quilombos are generally small, the heterogeneous distribution of HBB*S and HBB*C alleles among them is probably due to genetic drift and/or founder effect. The observed frequency of 3.7 kb deletion in Saracura (8.5%) was consistent with the African origin of the population, with a certain degree of local differentiation and admixture with individuals of Caucasian ancestry, placed in evidence by the occurrence of - -(MED) deletion (1.2%), a common mutation in Mediterranean regions. As regards f-thalassemia, among the seven different mutations found in Saracura, three βºand two β+ mutations were of Mediterranean origin, and two β+ of African. Thus, only 28% of the local β-thalassemia mutations found in Saracura were of African origin.

O tráfico de africanos na Amazônia colonial: abordagens historiográficas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-06) SILVA, Marley Antonia Silva da
This paper discusses the perception of historiography about the tra" cking of enslaved Africans to the Grand Para and Rio Negro. From the productions analyzed was evident in some studies that the African presence was in second place, on the grounds that the captaincy (Grão-Pará) o# ered restrictive conditions to the entry of the captive black. Among the recurring elements impeding the work is, the poverty of the inhabitants, abundance of skilled indigenous manpower, the inconsistency of agrarian enterprises (no plantation) and the “inability of tra" cking”. However, local culture is evident in the strong presence of African elements, hence the need for scholars seeking to justify the reasons that made possible the entry of these in the region. Said the native indolence, the con ict between religious and residents because the domain of the latter, the debate on the legitimacy of slavery and enslavement of indigenous epidemics, the Brazilian experience, the di" culties of boarding, the resistance of the Gentile, the indigenous law among others, are reasons that help to explain and understand the African presence in the Amazon Colonial . New approaches, there is already clear that one can’t think the African presence in the Amazon Colonial in a strictly economic perspective, the region and has had speci cities, think African slavery in the region implies launching new looks about the same.
