This study aims at portraying one of the Guarani villages in Jaraguá district, in São Paulo city, the Tekoa Pyau, focusing on the history of its formation, from the perspective of a tekoa creation, analysing how the Guarani indigenous people could re-insert in the geographic space, culturalizing and transforming it into a part of the Guarani universe. Moreover, the research aims at understanding how the Guarani comprehend their permanence in Jaraguá and their insertion in the urban area, how they see the non-indigenous people and the future of these relationships; that is to say how they manage their life in this metropolis and keep up their tradition. This village is located in an area on the margins of Bandeirantes highway, in the west part of the paulista capital, with few resources for their survival. Its inhabitants live, mainly, from the sale of handicrafts and some sporadic donation. The analysis of the collected data seems to indicate that the Guarani at the same time that they fight against the entropy and the messy contact with the non-indigenous people, they notice how essential this contact is for their survival. Taking all these aspects into consideration, they manage to keep their historical and cultural traditions, what could be noticed throughout this research and also in the presentation of the youngsters´vision of the future
