Sumario:Plants evoke relations of belong to a territory. Planted trees, flowers and medicines are evidences of caring, domesticating of the places, the existence of human occupation, as well as a knowledge that turn the places of the wood familiar. Plants refer to lived and known territory, or, also, in some cases, a territory already occupied before by another groups. The present research dedicates to understand the existent relations between Makuráp women and the know-how attached to tucum (Astrocaryum sp.) plant, in this context. Therefore we intend to build a comprehension about the life of the elderly Makuráp woman named Juraci Menkaiká starting from her biographical trajectory engendered with the know-how of marico, bag made from the leaves of the tucum used to carry the harvest of the farm and transport objects from one place to another. This research was made from successive fieldworks done between October of 2014 and February of 2018, along with the Makuráp people, in the Indigenous Land in Rio Branco, RO. The methodology used was semistructured interviews and ethnography.
