Tal processo perdurou at? 1633, quando foi interrompido pela chegada dos holandeses, sendo retomado somente em 1654. A partir deste ano, incentivou-se a ocupa??o de terras desconhecidas da capitania, subsidiando o avan?o de conquistadores rumo ?s terras mais ao interior, rompendo os limites divis?rios com a capitania do Siar? Grande at? ent?o conhecido: a ribeira do Ass?. Este avan?o resultou em enfretamentos com os habitantes destas terras, os conhecidos tapuias, levando ? eclos?o de diversos conflitos que compuseram a Guerra dos B?rbaros. O palco principal de tais acontecimentos no Rio Grande, entre os anos de 1687 e 1720, foi justamente a ribeira do Ass?, um dos espa?os a ser problematizado por esta pesquisa. Considerando-se isso, este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar o avan?o dos conquistadores no Rio Grande, contribuindo para o processo de territorializa??o portuguesa, que resultou no surgimento de uma nova fronteira entre o Rio Grande e o Siar? Grande: o rio Apodi-Mossor?. Para tanto, realizou-se o cruzamento de fontes produzidas entre os anos de 1659 e 1725, como as cartas de sesmarias, cartas r?gias, correspond?ncias entre a C?mara de Natal, os capit?es-mores do Rio Grande e o governo de Pernambuco e governo geral, bem como os documentos referentes aos ter?os de paulistas que atuaram na capitania. === The Portuguese territorial process of the captaincy of Rio Grande was initiated in1598 with the conquest of the Potengi River bar by Mascarenhas Homem. This process lasted until 1633, when it was interrupted by the arrival of the Dutch, and resumed only in 1654. From this year on, the occupation of unknown lands of the captaincy was encouraged, supporting the advancement towards conquering the backlands, breaking the divisive boundaries with the captaincy of Siar? Grande so far known: the Ass? riverside. This breakthrough resulted in confrontations with the inhabitants of these lands, known as tapuias, leading to outbreak of several conflicts that composed the Barbarians War. The main stage of such events in Rio Grande, between the years 1687 and 1720, was precisely the Ass? riverside, one of the spaces to be investigated by this research. Therefore, this paper aims to analyze the advance of the conquerors in Rio Grande, contributing to the territorial process, which resulted in the emergence of a new border between Rio Grande and Siar? Grande: the Apodi-Mossor? river. For this purpose, it was used sources produced between the years 1659 and 1725, as the settlement letters, royal charters, correspondence between the City Council of Natal, captains of Rio Grande and the government of Pernambuco and also the general government, as well as the documents related to the militia composed mainly by Paulistas who struggled in the captaincy.
