Wikipedia description:
Itaboraí (pronounced [itɐboɾaˈi] it-ə-BOR-ə-EE) is a city in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which belongs to the Rio de Janeiro metropolitan area. It was founded in 1672. In 2020, it had a population of 242,543. Around the year 1000, Tupi-speaking peoples from the valleys of the Madeira and Xingu rivers, on the right bank of the Amazon River, invaded most of the current Brazilian coast, expelling its previous inhabitants, speakers of languages belonging to the Macro-Jê linguistic trunk, to the interior of the continent. In the 16th century, when the Portuguese arrived in the Guanabara Bay region, it was occupied by one of these Tupi peoples: the Tupinambás, also called Tamoios.
