| Sumario: | This work is based on inventories and manuscript censuses (1831-32 e 1873) andfocuses demographic elements, occupational structure and resources levels of theAraxá population – especially the slaveholders – between 1816 and 1888. In Araxá, theeconomy, distinguished through the cattle raising activity and agricultural productionfor domestic consumption, was capable of population increase maintenance in the XIXcentury, according to the presented censuses data. Bigger resources had been joinedto the modest resources found initially, pointing to resources levels variations in thecommunity and to variations on its concentration. We may say that resources andoccupational structure presented some kind of relation to the size of the slaveholding. |
