Sumario:This article aims to understand how the Syrian and Lebanese representations through the graves which socially represent the immigration expressed in Santa Cruz cemetery in Corumbá, MS, Brazil. The clearest evidence is that they successfully reproduced trajectories achieved by wealthier social layers. Such trajectories were to consolidate the commercial operations and subsequently arrange alliances through marriage among people of local families who had social prominence. We start from recognition that this custom was not trodden by all immigrants of the city, that is, only a few of them could succeed. We intend to discuss here the successful individuals who achieved significant results while living in Corumbá. The methodology used was the survey of documentary sources in the collections which are available in the city.
