The thesis analyzes the process of recruitment of indigenous workers for the Rio de Janeiro Navy Armory between 1763 and 1820. A dialogical approach between the New Indigenous History, the History of Labor, the New Military History, Anthropology and Microhistory is This paper proposes to understand how the different mechanisms of capture of the indigenous arm for the Rio de Janeiro Navy Armory were related to this global process of military reforms that took place in the Portuguese Empire. The analysis of the collected documentary sources evidenced strategies of mi- litarization, ?civilization? and assimilation of the villagers, villains and ethnic groups not yet submitted to the settlement system, the so-called ?brave Indians?, as consequences of the capture of indigenous workers to the Navy services.The data collected from the documentary sources produced by the military, administrative agents and the naturalist travelers' reports to Rio de Janeiro contain information about the complexity of the experiences lived by indigenous workers in the Navy Arsenal. According to documentary evidence, the socioprofessional category of oarsmen or rowers, object of study of this research, was a group of workers formed only by indigenous people, whose emergence was related to the demands of the Navy by workers and conceptions of the pedagogical role of work. in the integration of indigenous people into society. One of the attributions of the villagers' populations of the Rio de Janeiro region was the supply of work force for the settlers and for the execution of the public works. Military and naval activities were also part of the set of functions and modalities of the work tat? the indigenous villages should perform. The eighteenth-century war conflicts between France, England, Portugal, and Spain changed the senses of war, their technologies, and demanded the professionalization of soldiers. In the Portuguese case, the war also produced the standardization of arsenals. The scarcity of men for the service of arms was a relevant issue for the Portuguese state between the 15th and 18th centuries. In the midst of the military reforms carried out by Portugal, numerous strategies were built by the Portuguese authorities to resolve this demand in the Lusitanian overseas possessions. The formation of native troops was a recurring practice in the Portuguese Empire. In 1808, the coming of the Royal Family to Brazil promoted legislative, administrative and urban changes in Rio de Janeiro. The promotion of war on indigenous groups called Botocudos marked the beginning of the Johannine period. New strategies of royal power, based on legal support, were implemented to ensure access to the work of the village Indians. In the world of work, the state-recruited natives for the Rio de Janeiro Navy Arsenal faced numerous problems such as militarization, loss of freedom, unhealthy working conditions, low pay, and the erasure of their ethnic identities.
