Guarulhos Archaeological Heritage Survey and Inventory - PIPAG

Funding: Processo FAPESP/Condephaat/Sec: 2012/50039-8 (2012 - 2015)


In this research, we demonstrated that the colonization of the territory of Guarulhos was characterized by a process in which the indigenous people were used as slaves of one of the first gold mining enterprises in the colonial period in the 16th century. Territorial occupation by Jesuit villages and gold mining radically changed the configuration of the indigenous land and caused the reallocation of labor. This research discussed the process of private appropriation of the original settlements based on archaeological data, the process of confiscation of indigenous lands and, as a consequence, the drastic reduction of the indigenous population, leading to the genocide of the original indigenous population in Guarulhos.
