MACIEL, Rogerio Andrade  y  ROZAL, Edilene Farias. Traditional knowledge of youth and adults and the presence of geometric concept in Tracuateua/PA. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2017, vol.42, n.3, pp.643-668. ISSN 1984-6444.  https://doi.org/10.5902/1984644428420.

The present article has as its aims identify the traditional knowledge that exists in handcraft produced by youth and adult quilombola’s peo ple and the presence of geometric concepts in the community of Jurus saca, at Tracuateua/PA. The authors who base the analysis are: Castro (1997), Freire (1996), D’Ambrósio (2007). Methodologically was used a qualitative approach from a perspective of the phenomenological fo cus, the use of interviews, observation and photographs as a way of col lecting data and a visual record about the production of handicrafts. In the analyzes of this study, it was observed that there are three products that artisans make for the use of artisanal fishing and family farming, they are: cofo, paneiro and socó. There is an evidence that in these craft products, used in the economic occupation of the community, emerge knowledge and traditional practice that allow the construction of flat geometric figures and the recognition of the life experiences of youth people and adults in their cultural, social and historical dimensions pre sent in the daily life of this community.

Palabras clave : Traditional Knowledge; Education of Youth and Adult Quilombola’s People; Ethnomathematics.
