RESUMO

In Vale do Ribeira, São Paulo, there are some black neighborhoods that nowadays demand to be recognized as ?quilombos? remains?. In this region, during the slavery years in Brazil, ?free areas? were formed, in which black fugitives from slavery, along with blacks who were abandoned after the decline of the mining cycle in the region, formed groupings that gave rise to these neighborhoods. Among these neighborhoods are São Pedro e Galvão, founded by an African fugitive called Bernardo Furquim, who arrived at the region with a group of fugitives and founded a group of cognatic descendants, incorporating relatives from groups already established and fugitives who kept arriving. By doing this, he has contributed to the formation of a local people, relatively closed from the demographic point of view. In short, Bernardo Furquim, by leading and grouping stray Africans in a free territory, managed to found something similar to an African kingdom in Brazil
