Resumo
Seeking to implement the powers to them entrusted by the Portuguese crown, and to
organize the occupation in the Brazilians countryside, bandeirantes such as Bartolomeu
Bueno da Silva and miners, like Manoel Rodrigues Tomar, founded in the captaincy of
Goiás some “arraiais”, a kind of settlement without legal or administrative autonomy,
which answered to their local villages (in this case, São Paulo). In this captaincy, one
“arraial” stood out, both economically and politically: the Arraial de Sant'Ana, which
became later known as Vila Boa. For centuries, this urban nucleus was essential to the
state of Goiás economy and history. When the captaincy of Goiás started to feel the great
impact of the region ́s gold shortage, many towns and cities were abandoned by the
miners and eventually disappeared. However, Vila Boa (now known as Goiás) had
survived this shortage, despite it also suffering a political impact in the early twentieth
century when the capital was transferred to the modern city of Goiânia. After the loss of
the State seat, some residents of the City of Goiás, allied to public agencies such as the
National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage (Iphan), pooled their efforts in order to
make the city the most important cultural heritage site of the state. When one
acknowledges the importance of this city, one also has to discuss its rediscovery by
means of its heritage, now heavily explored by the local tourism boards, as well as the
impacts that this rediscovery of architecture and urbanism - through actions from Iphan
and part of the city's residents – brought, and still bring, to the cultural and social scene
of the state of Goiás, besides the fact that the city was conferred the World Heritage Site
status from Unesco in 2001.
