History
The origins of the municipality are linked to Urucará, whose history dates back to the foundation of the village of Santana da Capela, in 1814, by Crispim Lobo de Macedo. In 1880 the parish was created, based in Santana da Capela, which polarized the development of this riverside region of the Amazon River. In 1887, the municipality of Urucará was created in the parish area, which in 1930 was extinguished, with its territory being annexed to Itacoatiara, to be definitively reestablished in 1935. At the end of 1981, the following sub-districts were included in the administrative structure of Urucará: Urucará, Santa Maria, Capucapu, Alto Uatumã and São Sebastião and adjacent territories on the left bank of the Uatumã River are dismembered from Urucará and become the Autonomous Municipality of São Sebastião do Uatumã.

Elevated to the category of municipality with the name of São Sebastião do Uatumã, in 1981. Date of Installation: 07/02/1985
