(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-09-02) SILVA, Rayana Alexandra Sousa da; COSTA, Sue Anne Regina Ferreira da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3629751361208856; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3314-5148
In this research, we reflect on Paleontological Heritage as a specifically complex heritage category that is inserted in environmental, cultural and mineral policies. The analysis starts from a review of the transformations in the conceptions of cultural and natural heritage in Brazil, to problematize the various dimensions that interfere in the processes of heritage patrimonialization, besides contextualizing and reinforcing its social importance in a context of great complexity. We will look specifically at the paleontological heritage of Atalaia Beach, which is one of the main beach resorts in the state of Pará, receiving tourists from all over Brazil and the world every year. The region's patrimony is formed by an expressive fossil record from the Brazilian marine Cenozoic, dating from 23 to 25 m.y., representing the transgressive moment of advance and retreat of the Atlantic Ocean over the continent. The fossils found are mainly of marine invertebrates and vertebrates, such as manatees, rays, sharks, gastropods and fishes. Thus, the main objective of this work is to investigate and analyze the paleontological heritage of Atalaia Beach, seeking to relate and communicate among themselves the subjects, environmental context and cultural heritage. To this end, based on Morin, in the method that seeks complexity through the creation of avenues of approach, we carried out observations in different pheres: a public hearing for environmental licensing, an activity with elementary school teachers and an interview with a private collector of fossils. The results presented in the form of two articles point out that a) the use of this heritage follows a utilitarian logic of nature transformation; b) we highlight a complex network of environmental, economic and social issues that must be considered when any project of valorization, education or even of analysis of the paleontological heritage of Atalaia Beach is intended; c) we point out the urgent need to transform our practices in relation to paleontological heritage, so that we can think and act upon it in a more comprehensive way, conceiving it as a fundamental right which contributes to the full exercise of citizenship.

Territórios e territorialidades de comunidades extrativistas na dinâmica de apropriação e uso do patrimônio natural no interior e entorno do parque ambiental de Mosqueiro-PA
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-03-23) DINIZ, Francisco Perpetuo Santos; TAVARES, Maria Goretti da Costa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7796891525258446
This is a research that analyzes the territorial control strategies by different subjects involved in the dynamics of the formation of territories and territorialities of the natural heritage in the context of the interior and surroundings of the Municipal Environmental Park of Mosqueiro. The relevance of this research lies in the fact that it constitutes a subaltern thesis as a result of the literature on the subject being mostly focused on the problematization of cultural heritage, as it is the first thesis on natural heritage that deals with the contexts of traditional populations in Amazonia and for presenting a dissonant discussion of official and hegemonic perspectives in technical and academic circles. This research was supported by the spatial dialectic of destructive construction by considering socio-spatial conflicts and contradictions that involve the appropriation and use of natural heritage. It has a qualitative character, involved bibliographical, documentary and exploratory research with the accomplishment of field work with monitoring of cultural practices and nature management in the Extractive Communities Caruarú, Tucumandeu and Tamanduá, Pratiquara and Rio Murubira localities. Data were analyzed using discourse and content analysis techniques. The research problem was supported by the understanding of tensions, conflicts and socio-spatial practices that resulted from the institutionalization of the Mosqueiro Environmental Park. The central question of the research revolved around the understanding of how islanders appropriated and used the natural heritage mediated by the promotion of territories and territorialities. The guiding questions asked which agents were involved in the appropriation and use of natural heritage within and around the Park and how did they exercise territorial control? What were the territorialities that were configured in natural heritage control practices and how were they related and conflicted? How did the appropriation of nature occur in the extractive communities and localities of Mosqueiro and how were they configured in alternative strategies for the possession of natural heritage in a utopian and territorial perspective? The general objective sought to analyze the dynamics of appropriation and use of nature in the non-urbanized part of Mosqueiro (Parque), which was configured as a process and formation of territories and territorialities of natural heritage. The specific objectives intended to identify and map which agents were involved in the appropriation and use of natural heritage inside and around the Park and analyzing how they exercised territorial control; Identify and discuss which territorialities were configured in natural heritage control practices and how they related and conflicted. To verify and analyze the appropriation and use of nature in the extractive communities and localities of Mosqueiro and how they were configured in alternative strategies of possession of the natural heritage in a utopian and territorial perspective. The central thesis of the research is based on the understanding that natural heritage results from socio-spatial practices that involve the territorialization of power resulting from social, historical and spatial conditions permeated by the management of nature. Therefore, it has no innate value and does not express the gathering of natural elements dissociated from the socio-spatial whole.
