Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/13473The oil of the tucumã stone bug is a medicinal product extracted from the beetle larva (Speciomerus ruficornis Germar) a traditional knowledge passed down through the generations in communities of Marajó, especially in the Saracá community located in the municipality of Ponta de Pedras-PA where the oil is widely used in the treatment of illnesses and corresponds to an important source of income for families that carry out its extraction. This master's dissertation has the general objective of showing and describing the steps and stages of the process of extracting the oil from the tucumã seed, according to the reports of the residents of the Saracá community on the island of Marajó, as a cultural inventory through the elaboration of a sociotechnical guide. As key concepts for discussion, traditional communities, traditional knowledge, tucumã-do-Pará and natural resource management were considered, by means of authors who work with such themes with ownership, in a perspective of respect and appreciation for peoples and traditional knowledge. . The research is classified as a case study, since it was proposed to study the case of the oil of the animal and aims to return to the community through the final product, a sociotechnical guide with information already known by the residents and others pertinent to maintenance practice and traditional knowledge. The construction of the text took place through primary and secondary sources, considering the experiences lived in the years 2016, 2019 and 2020, recorded through a field diary, photographs and interviews. The monitoring of the stages of the animal oil extraction process, reports from residents, studies carried out on the ecosystem and possible environmental implications regarding the intensification of product extraction due to the increase in demand, demonstrated the need for resource management in order to guarantee access by present and future generations, enabling the reproduction of the beetle that corresponds to an important species and the maintenance of the ecosystem.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Comunidades tradicionaisSaberes tradicionaisSistema sociotécnicoGestão de recursos naturaisDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::PLANEJAMENTO URBANO E REGIONALUSO E APROVEITAMENTO DOS RECURSOS NATURAISGESTÃO DOS RECURSOS NATURAIS E DESENVOLVIMENTO LOCAL
