This study aims to analyze 147 religious Profession Letters from novices that professed their vows at the Monastery of St. Benedict of Rio de Janeiro between years 1602 and 1802. In other places these documents are also called profession Act or Ballot. However, in the Rio de Janeiro institution these documents became known as a profession Letters, which, in the case of a geographical search becomes more relevant by linking the term letter to cartography. The choice of the term letter, took into account the possibility of tracing itineraries of these novices from their respective profession Letters. In some cases, crossing the information contained in the profession Letters with other data from other sources it is possible to outline the trajectory of individuals who have persevered in the promises made to the Portuguese-Brazilian Benedictine Congregation. The Monastery of St. Benedict of Rio de Janeiro was founded in 1590. The first religious individuals who joined it professed in Portugal, or in Salvador, Bahia, where happened the first novitiate of the Benedictine province of Portuguese America. The first religious professions which took place in Rio de Janeiro monastery occurred in the year 1602. Over the next two centuries the Monastery of St. Benedict in Rio de Janeiro created significant equity and included the management and labor of these local individuals and of the ones adventitious from other Brazilian and Portuguese monasteries. Year 1802 was set as the limit of the time frame of elaboration of the profession Letters, considering their iconographic composition as the beginning of a new era. The years 1602 and 1802 should not be understood as a tight time frame. On the contrary, they should be understood as flagging the ingresses of the individuals in a given society already on the march, which existed before these respective ingresses and jutting out over time by successive ingresses
