The thesis proposes detect by analyzing compositions of five so-called "Amazon Legends Series" by Waldemar Henrique Pará, and the novel "Orphans of Eldorado", the Amazon Milton Hatoum, the marks of mythic narratives in shaping regional identity.The Amazonian mythic narratives are based on imaginary hillbilly rich and fantastical episodes, which now serve as the theme over the years, for inspiration and poetic literary constructions. Authors like Waldemar Hatoum and stand out, such as promoters and imaginary in his works reveal the values, beliefs, experiences and behaviors experienced by his characters in the Amazon region. A collection of (poetry) songs of poet and composer Waldemar Henrique translates through mythic narratives sung, the riverine life full of language itself in the Amazon region and indigenous traditions, enriched content about seduction, charm forest, private wealth, religiosity; respect for beings of the forest. The poet seems to perpetuate the Amazonian culture through art spoken and sung. In Hatoum, narratives of native people reveal a space full of conflict, establishing his characters search for a perfect place, the lost Eden in the early times and continually sought by man. Waldemar and Hatoum show that the myths and legends, even if understood as a product of the imagination, in fact interfere with those who believe in them and mark the characterization of identity Amazon. The adopted methodological resources are divided into literature, documentary and analysis tools (and narrative compositions) of the authors in question.To achieve the objectives, the research develops a descriptive way, which shows that Waldemar and Hatoum, record that the Amazon myths still flourish robust, contributing to a polyphony of voices heard in the region, disclosing a place of vast imaginary dimensions, whose inventory accounts, will never be closed
