    Tips

    July 22, 2023

    With the decline of sugar cane in the 18th century, the discovery of gold and the mining cycle in the interior of the country, the opening of paths between the plateau and the southern coast of Rio de Janeiro was intensified, where precious metals were exported after overcoming the foothills of the mountains, through the ports of PARATI and ANGRA DOS REIS. At that moment, the village of SÃO JOÃO DO PRÍNCIPE was founded, later called SÃO JOÃO MARCOS, which appeared in 1733, in SERRA DO PILOTO, and is an example of a municipality that was founded as a function of a path between the plateau and the coast, with a direct impact on the structuring of the urban space in Mangaratiban.
