Acesso em:.1982-5374https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/12882This 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.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/TráficoEscravoAmazônia colôniaTraffickingSlavesAmazon colonialArtigo de Periódico10.18542/rmi.v9i12.3076
