Current paper analyzes the southern frontier of the state of Pará and the northern territory of the state of Maranhão, Brazil, close to the river Turiaçu and assesses its importance for the displacement of people and goods during Portuguese colonial rule and in the post-1822 Independence years. The paper investigates the strategic and political relevance of the frontier for travel and transport, correspondence and transport of goods within the context of the Brazilian Indigenes, merchants and the Portuguese and Brazilian governments. The conflicts between inhabitants and settlers are highlighted in the essay. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper deals with the concept of cities as privileged spaces for communication (Reguillo-Cruz, 2007). We propose a discussion, based on the empirical scenarios studied, on the interactions and dynamics of space constitution in Amazonian cities where there are wooden bridges, called marombas, which reconnect flooded areas in the situation of rising river waters. The marombas indicate daily communication processes and specify the relationship between men and nature. We understand, based on França (2006) and Braga (2011), interactions as processes in which people build social and cultural habits. As a methodological perspective, we stand for the approach of the moving cartography as a fundamental way for understanding the Amazonian communicational experiences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
