CONCEICAO, Milton Luz da. La arquitectura absorbida en la isla de Santa Catarina, Brasil. Apuntes [online]. 2012, vol.25, n.2, pp.200-209. ISSN 1657-9763.

This study intends to demonstrate the relationship between the constructions made by Azorean settlers soon after their arrival to the island of Santa Catarina located in southern Brazil, and the technical and architectural forms of the natives adopted by them. Darcy Ribeiro (1999) mentioned the indigenous acculturation phenomenon on behalf of the group of settlers in her book O Povo Brasileiro, The Brazilian People. This paper aims to offer an in-depth study of the consequences brought specifically to architecture. A special mention must be given to the walls of wattle and daub; the technical component that was best incorporated in the colonizer's building culture and which has endured until the present day. In regard to the form of native architecture, it is good to remember that it has remained unchanged despite the substitution of materials by newer ones over time. The paper pretends to deliver a contribution to the consolidation of Brazilian identity and aknowledgement of the spatial occupation made in the area.

Palavras-chave : Architecture; acculturation; colonization; earth walls; plant roofs; spatial occupation.
