Abstract

Brazil is the country that has the greatest diversity of traditional boats on the planet, exhibiting elements and traditions from much of the naval heritage of humanity. However, its wealth is located on areas that are vulnerable to several threats of sustainability: the coastal zone. Pitimbu-PB was selected among the main Brazilian naval contexts as a priority site to be nominated as Brazilian Cultural Landscape by IPHAN for its outstanding type of boat, the “raft of two main sails” (and two main masts). This article is aimed at sharing challenges of managing cultural heritage associated with complex enviroments such as coastal environments. The discussion is based on landscape analysis and documentary sources.
