| Sumario: | The text deals with the presence/absence of museums in the Marajoara Amazon and discusses the safeguarding and the management of archaeological heritage in the municipalities of Breves and Portel, state of Pará. The analysis of the data reveals that in Marajo’s museums are not reduced to institutions. They must be understood as dynamic spaces characterized by landscapes, archaeological sites, and the environment. In the municipalities studied, it appears that there is no policy for the protection/management of archaeological heritage. However, there are different people practicing unique processes to form collections, protect, and even manage these assets. However, the exploitation of the territory is a constant threat to this heritage. Hence we suggest the formation of Ecomuseums as a tactic of protection/management of the archaeological assets and a space for reflection and knowledge production. |
