This paper aims at evaluating the meaning of two major sources, relevant to the study both for agrarian production and trade, in colonial Minas Gerais, Brazil: tithes and commodities entrance records. The entire discussion to be done is based upon the idea that, during this period, two modes of production coexisted in the Captaincy of Minas Gerais: slave-holding and peasant (or "parcelar" or "familiar") ones. Regarding this theoretical requirement, the figures offered by the records can suitably be read.
