AbstractReflecting on their past, the families which have organised the "Quilombo" in Vargem Grande Rio de Janeiro narrate the events which have immediate significance to them, establishing a temporality which talks about the facts which are considered socially relevant, creating frameworks of collective memory which respond to the interests and worries of the actual familial groups. In the reflective process, time presents its social nature, from the confirmation that the rhythm of collective life informs the temporalities which operate within society. In the case presented, changes are not marked by "dates" but rather by "times" which are designated by name, articulating spaces and ways of inhabiting, amongst other elements. This way of reflecting about times, marks their history and situations, concretely experienced by residents of the area and their ancestors. 2 Neste texto aparecem em itálico expressões e categorias nativas.
