Abstract

This work aims to identify the knowledges and achievements of the stallholders and customers who "make the fair" of the Major Prates neighborhood, in Montes Claros, the northern region of Minas Gerais. Through the observation of the relationships woven in that space, we developed an investigation about the daily practices in the Free Fair’s context, from the analysis of the arts of saying, nourishing and making ethnomathematics. We made a qualitative analysis of the gestures and voices of the subjects who "make the fair" that shows an efficient use of mathematical concepts in their daily commercial practice. We have verified that the Major Prates’ Fair has been consolidated by its vocation markedly “hortifrutigranjeira”, as well as by the possibility of familiar coexistence of the people who attend it to nourish, have fun and work.
