Mozambique's history is marked by distinct phases, including pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial. More specifically, according to written sources, reinforced by archaeological evidence, the pre-colonial state of Mutapa, established itself in the northern plateau of Zimbabwe, extending its influence to areas drained by the Zambezi River, including Mozambique. The rise of the State of Mutapa in this region also coincides with the Portuguese penetration in its interior, in the search for gold exchanged for cloth and beads, in the context of long-distance trade with the Indian Ocean, facilitated by the navigability of the Zambezi River. The fact characterizes the phenomenon known as capital Portuguese mercantile, which was also at the origin of the decline of the State of Mutapa. Thus, this work aims to understand the influence of the State of Mutapa in the Zambezi Valley, in Mozambique, through the analysis of Zimbabwe by M’bire Nhantekwe who, from the point of view of archeological, may have been one of the main capitals of the State of Mutapa, in this region. For such, a description of the archaeological identity of the State of Mutapa was carried out, to understand how the theme is approached and understood in the Escolar Book, in Mozambique. To achieve this objective, the historical materialism mentioned by Nogueira da was analyzed. Coast. On the other hand, the description of the archaeological works carried out in M’bire Nhantekwe was crucial for the comparison of existing sources on the subject, in Mozambique and as the State of Mutapa is covered in the textbook.
