Every year hundreds of people gather in São Pedro Town, Jaramataia County, in praise of São Pedro because of his hierophany. The religious festival, besides producing a unique spatiality, surpasses this perspective by integrating meaning and signifier in the generation of fishing territoriality between the sacred and the profane. Between June 27 and 29, flags adorn streets and boats, which, as cosmolocalities or cosmo-objects, compose, enrich, diversify and animate the temporality of the party. During these days, visitors, residents who made the diaspora, meet or meet the settlers and interact with the territory, drinking from the mystique of being, knowing and making fishermen, intertwined in the dialectic between the sacred and the profane. There is not a single day without faith for those who paddle and launch networks, and we could register these nuances through participatory and qualitative methodologies, especially geo-ethnography. We have also seen that materialities are reinvented in their own cosmogonies, which subsidize riverside territoriality. Thus, in the daily life of each fisherman reveals the triad of faith, earth and water, whose apex is reached at the feast that praises, cries and venerates São Prdro, the owner of the gates of heaven, the mastermind of rain and the leader of the fishermen.
