This thesis presents the results of an ethnographic research on the quilombola territorial recognition processes in Bahia. Based on the technical reports prepared by the INCRA Regional Office in this state, from 2003 to 2018, focusing more closely on 03 (three) cases (reports), through which ethnography was developed, the research consisted of a description and analysis of these reports, taking them as ethnographic processes (Silva, 2016). The detailed examination of the empirical material resulted in the recording of a period in the history of this state practice in Bahia and the collection of a series of theoretical-methodological, ethical, and political questions that are being conceived and conveyed in the context of a specialized praxis, on the very development of Anthropology in Brazil and the formation of anthropologists.
