The riverine community in the southwestern state of Bahia has undergone changes in their way of life, especially in the city of Itambé. These changes in the reorganization of the coastal promote the dismantling of their cultural practices, traditional knowledge, values and daily collective built interfering overwhelmingly preservation of the territorial and river, culminating in dramatic process of dispossession. The perception of this context was guided by a qualitative, humanistic approach based on cultural - Phenomenology, and as a category guiding the landscape. Were used as research tools: a literature review, field research through direct observation, surveys of data related to the historical aspects of the city of Itambé in southwestern Bahia, and photographic record. Besides these, semi-structured interviews and collection of testimonies, which contributed to the debate and understanding of reality riverside studied. To listen to the riverside, it was observed to be present the characteristics that identify them as such and still keeps alive the memory of the history that built them as riparian. The Pardo River is the largest element of symbolism in the landscape and the perception of them is supported by the world view permeated by its waters. However, the reality experienced today differs from the past, leads to denial of the continuity of this peculiar mode of life and leads to the invisibility of the individuals and the community. We conclude that the social group in question is in the process of discontinuing their living space, primarily by the hegemonic pattern of development focused on the reproduction of capital and distorts the perception of and bordering the Rio Pardo, regarded as a symbol of the same existential and perceptions of the new way of life they are subjugated. Thus, it is believed that emergency measures should be taken to avoid the invisibility river in south of Bahia. In this context urges a more effective action by the public toward alternative preservation of social memory and the recovery of the riverine environment, whether its water and shore, are the living conditions of the present inhabitants.
