History of the journal
Published since 1986, it was initially printed annually and focused on disseminating research into the history and prehistory of the West of Santa Catarina, with a sensitive eye to marginalized groups and social struggles. Since 2000, it has been published every six months and has expanded its scope to include national and international work. After its inclusion in the Unochapecó Journal Portal, through the Electronic Journal Publishing System (SEER), in 2008, it began to seek greater internationalization and since 2015, it has ceased to be printed and is now published only through SEER, with all its content available.
