The Property category includes the movable and immovable property of people who lived in Portuguese America or had a relationship with this territory between 1580 and 1640. From very diverse sources such as wills, grants of sesmarias, declarations of property, written testimonies, etc., it has been possible to reconstruct what was owned by some of the individuals included in the database, expanding the information already contained in the "persons" section. This type of information allows us to better understand the material and economic situation of the different persons, since property is a fundamental aspect to understand the everyday world of Portuguese America in the context of the Hispanic Monarchy. Navigating through this category we can find information on the different properties existing at the time, such as houses, sugar mills, sesmarias, ships, corrals, trades, slaves, among others.
