Praça do Pelourinho (Gravura de Joaquim José Codina – Amazônia Felsínea). Belém.<br />

Fim do século XVIII.<br />

Pelourinho Square (Print by Joaquim José Codina – Amazônia Felsínea). Belém.<br />

Late 18 th century.<br />

O projeto centralizou o<br />

pelourinho – entalhado em<br />

pau d’arco e na forma de<br />

coluna dórica — em uma<br />

praça de mercado que passou<br />

a ser chamada de Praça do<br />

Pelourinho, conforme a<br />

tradição referente aos locais<br />

de castigo. Essa praça e sua<br />

base de baluarte – construção<br />

alta que se sustenta por<br />

muralhas – não existem mais.<br />

semicircular bulwark jutting out<br />

onto the beach, then used as a<br />

wharf.<br />

This plan placed the<br />

pelourinho –carved in pau<br />

d’arco (tabebuia wood) and<br />

shaped as a Dorian column –<br />

in the middle of a market<br />

square that received the name<br />

of Pelourinho Square,<br />

following the tradition of<br />

punishment sites. The square<br />

and its bulwark – a tall<br />

construction supported by<br />

walls – no longer exist.
