This paper analyzes the settlement on the banks of the Trans-Amazon highway in the municipality of São João do Araguaia, in southeastern Pará, during the government of Emílio Garrastazu Médici. In this municipality, said colonization was accomplished when the military tried to suppress guerrilla movement of the B PC militants at the junction of the Araguaia and Tocantins rivers. There, not only members of the Catholic Church were persecuted, but also many rural workers were arrested and tortured and / or required to be guides army in the hunt for guerrillas. In 1974, after the guerrilla annihilation, INCRA abandoned the colonization project and many families, who had come from different parts of Brazil attracted by colonization, finding no support from INCRA, came to occupy numerous properties with unproductive definitive securities or of aforamentos, starting with those who lined the highway, causing intense and protracted conflicts with farmers, owners of these lands.
