This paper deals with the fourth volume of the History of Patriarchal Society in Brazil, by
Gilberto Freyre, entitled Jazigos e covas rasas (Tombs and Unmarked Graves). There are at
least three hypotheses regarding this book: that this volume was only planned by Freyre; that it started to be written but was never finished; and that the text was written but mysteriously disappeared from Freyre’s home. We aim here to discuss which would probably be the ideas of this book, taking into consideration the first three volumes published by Freyre during the
1930’s and the 1950’s — The Masters and The Slaves, The Mansions and The Shanties,
and Order and Progress —, as well as what Freyre wrote on this possible fourth volume into the preface of Order and Progress (and into its methodological note), and yet into the introduction of the second edition of The Mansions and the Shanties.
