This work is a partial result of the production of the dissertation on information and social memory of Casa de flour in Terreirão village in Muniz Ferreira, Bahia. Therefore, this work is justified by enabling the expansion of knowledge about afro-indigenous trajectories and narratives, and by the understanding that there is a scientific need in the area, to expand the understanding of ethnic-racial communities, since it is necessary to fight against structural, institutional and scientific racism that has produced oblivion and erasure of these stories. Furthermore, our problem is to know: What informational elements can we identify in the Casa de flour, considering the ethnic-racial influences (indigenous and African)? Thus, the general objective is to identify the informational elements of the place, through the Casa de farinha. The specific objectives are: to record the narratives about the origin of Povoado Terreirão; present the informational elements developed at the Casa de farinha do Povoado Terreirão; report the territorial formation of the place in the context of the Recôncavo Baiano and the municipality of Muniz Ferreira; and point out the documentary information about the place. The methodology used is descriptive and qualitative. Methods of ethnomethodology, exploratory research and case study were used. The techniques and procedures adopted were: field visit, field diary, interviews, direct and participant observation, bibliographic and documentary research. Its partial results are the narratives about the territorial formation of the place and the presentation of informational elements that represent the ethnic-racial information observed in locu.
