This study draws from the theoretical foundations of ethnographic work to examine the social processes related to the construction of a Palestinian locality in the city of Barra do Garças, Mato Grosso, Brazil. Throughout this work we have approached different generations of Palestinians, who currently live in the region, in order to observe their varied processes of reinventing tradition and their feelings of belonging for the construction of a Palestinian locality. We investigate the ways expressions work as channels of construction and maintenance of this locality in Barra do Garças. Likewise, we strive on the understanding of the feeling of belonging to a land of origin. We start from the assumption that there is a language of cohesion, signs created and activated by the Palestinians themselves that define them and legitimize them as a collectivity, but also we consider that the forms that subjects trigger and express identifications regarding Palestine in their daily experiences are plural. To that end, we analyze the ways in which subjects creatively reinvent their collective and individual experiences in time and space for the construction of a community and production of a Palestinian locality. We investigate not only how these signs can be recreated in the continuity of the diaspora, recoding and updating the experiences of this group of immigrants in Barra do Garças, but also how they influence the different forms of engagement of the subjects with the local.
