Mariana: The Construction of the City and its Paths By Fabiana da Silva Viana Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais Abstract- In this article I present historical data about the creation of the city of Mariana, located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. This city was of great importance throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, as it housed authorities and political, religious and administrative institutions. The information presented in the article was gathered through extensive bibliographical and documental research, carried out from the approach of Social History and Italian micro-history. In the records about the construction of the city, the efforts of the authorities to order the public spaces, were noted guaranteeing the control of material goods and the movement of people through the territory of the mines.
