Revista de Arqueologia Pública, Campinas, n. 7, p. 20-38, jul. 2013.e- 2237-8294http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/18573In this article I present some reflections on the current scenario of archaeological research in sugarcane expansion areas in São Paulo state. I highlight the small number of research in these areas, especially those that involve rescue and socialization processes. As a counterpoint, I present the Guarani Program of Archaeological Resources Management, which has registered 62 archaeological sites, some dating between the fifteenth and seventeenth centuries, referring to discussions about the colonization of the region and the extermination of indigenous groups, problematizating concepts of collective memory, exiled memories and excluded pasts. The choice of certain theoretical positions and methodological practices has made it possible to question the “official” history, which excluded indigenous peoples from local memories.porAcesso AbertoArqueologia preventivaMusealização da arqueologiaMemória socialPreventive archaeologyArchaeological musealizationSocial memoryPrática arqueológica e memória social: redes de saber e poder nas pesquisas em áreas de expansão de cultivo no interior paulistaArchaeological practice and social memory: networks of knowledge and power in the research of cultivation expansion areas in interior of São Paulo stateArtigo
