Diving in the dynamic Amazonian social life, ruled by the temporality of waters, the article follows, through dialogues between History and Literature, marajoara populations’ ways of being and living, highlighting their African/Indigenous heritage and local knowledge, which resulted from cultural mediation with Western, written culture. Lying on poetics, landscapes, and characters created by the writers Dalcídio Jurandir and Sylvia Helena Tocantins, this text visualizes the footsteps of the marajoara, who elaborate, with great creativity, meanings to restate cosmologies, and sociocultural experiences. These historical subjects, in their subtle manifestations and practices of belonging, dribbled both limits and intolerance from secular and religious powers, in the Amazonian Marajó island.Key words: water regimes, African-indigenous cultures, local knowledge.Téléchargements
