Identity constructions take place in socio-cultural contexts between personal and collective relationships that are established between members of certain social groups. Quilombola identities are marked by processes of struggle and resistance in the historiography of Brazil. In this sense, the objective of this research is to understand the processes of construction of the identities of quilombola children from the Engenho II community located at the Kalunga Historical and Cultural Heritage Site in the municipality of Cavalcante (GO), taking into account three dimensions where they are socialized, the family, the school environment and the surrounding society, marked by ecotourism. It is a participatory research, which uses as research instruments and sources drawings and historical reports prepared by children and adolescents living in the community in question, aged between 8 and 17 years. The drawings and reports highlighted the natural elements, such as waterfalls, trails, which are also explored by tourism, as well as religious festivals, dances (Sussa) and the memories of ancestors. Understanding children and adolescents as historical subjects crossed by the patrimonial elements of the community and those of the surrounding society, the methodological proposal effectively contributed to understand these quilombola identities of the children of Engenho II.
