Indigenous, African and fugitive communities in the colonial Amazon

In this article we discuss the historical process of the formation of these indigenous refugees beyond the usability of the same nomenclature (mocambo) for African slaves and runaway Indian communities. We addressed the meaning of this type of protest (collective leakage and the establishment of communities for indigenous peoples in the Amazon Colonial) and the formation of mestizo communities of indigenous peoples and Africans in a process of ethno-Genesis.
