History
Mâncio Lima initially began as a village called “Vila Japiim” and was elevated in 1913 by Captain Regos Barros. Japiim, a bird with black and yellow plumage and very common in the Vale do Juruá region, was also the name of the village that later gave rise to the municipality of Mâncio Lima. It developed to the category of municipality with the name of Mancio de Lima in 1963. On May 14, 1976, Law nº 588 was signed, which officially raised Mâncio Lima to the category of Municipality. But only on May 30, 1977 – Mâncio Lima became firmly established with the inauguration of the first mayor. It was the Northeasterners, notably the people of Ceará, who were responsible for clearing up, populating and working for the greater economic development of the Western Amazon.
