| Summary: | Place of inspiration for different aspects of popular culture, the region known as backland
refers us to representations that sometimes focus on specific characteristics, which gain aspects of
generalization of diverse communities and identities: sadness, poverty, suffering, dryness, scarcity and so
many others appear as intrinsic to the countrymen and the countrywomen. Looking at the countrymen of
the high backlands of Sergipe, who lives in the Florestan Fernandes Settlement, we will try to specify in
some points of this location and the human presence, focusing on a possibility of definition in the concept
of Place referenced in SANTOS (2008) with emphasis on beings human beings, to then understand how the
Identities thought from TÍLIO (2009) are constantly and dialectically reconfigured in the caatinga of
Sergipe.
