The Maracá region, in the municipality of Mazagão, state of Amapá, holds a vast archaeological potential, in which contexts of secondary burial in urns with anthropomorfic and zoomorfic characteristics—found in caves and shelters—feature prominently. The present dissertation is an ethnography about the representations that inhabitants of Vila de Laranjal de Maracá—located in the surroundings of several such sites—share of the archaeological traces found, as well as of the research carried out on these materials. Besides that, this study also tackles issues on practices of encantaria (Enchant Cult) and on the imaginary related to places described by the inhabitants. To accomplish that, participant observation, interviews, and bibliographic analysis were used in the attempt to reflect—based on the principles of Public Archaeology—on the different forms of impact of material culture.
