MORRO DA GAMELA (MONTE HOREBE): FROM MUNICIPAL URBAN PARK TO SACRED PLACE

Abstract

This article aimed to analyse and think about space in its multiple forms and representations, a task that Geography and geographers have been working on since its origins. For this, they started from their varied scales and valuations, as different categories of analysis, evolving as new meanings are attributed to them, recreated or rescued. Usually based on intentional human actions results of cultural, economic, political and social processes. Several perspectives and prisms can be understood as the lenses through which they will be observed in na attempt to be understood in na interdisciplinar and totalizing way, fundamental characteristics of Human Geography.
