This study focused on the former residents of the village of Canela, located on the right bank of the Tocantins River in Palmas, TO. With the creation of the Lajeado hydroelectric dam reservoir in 2001, this community was resettled in the urban area of Palmas, more precisely in Block 508 North. This dissertation is an effort to understand the recent dynamics of construction and reconstruction of the daily life and way of life of traditional communities, through the study of the displacement of a village, the village of Canela, originally a riverside community. This village, resettled in a new urban context-the city of Palmas-reinvented, rebuilt, and fought to preserve the characteristics that ensured its identity as a community. A way of life built over a century and a half, which identified this village as a riverside community, was abruptly interrupted by the formation of the hydroelectric plant reservoir, flooding the lands where this population lived. This led to a series of demands from this community, both in relation to their material conditions of existence and in relation to what they believe to be the restructuring of their way of life and identity.
