RESUMO

This study analyzes the incorporation of Amazonian indigenous peoples and their territories to the Portuguese imperial dominium, from the beginning of the colonization process (1614) until the promulgation of the Diretório dos Índios (1757). Considering the Native peoples integral role in the Portuguese political and economical policies, this study attempts to evaluate the variations of the legislation to the Amazon region, as well as its guiding principles. This analysis suggests a revision of the discussion about the relation between imperial dominium and labor market in the formation of Brazil.
