  • Brás Cubas (Porto, December 1507 — Porto, 1592) was a Portuguese nobleman, explorer and the founder of the village of Santos (a city today). The son of João Pires Cubas and Isabel Nunes, he was twice governor of the Captaincy of São Vicente (1545-1549 and 1555–1556). He arrived in the Portuguese colony of Brazil in the year of 1531 with Martim Afonso de Sousa, the founder of the Captaincy of São Vicente. The region of Santos was already populated, but it was Brás Cubas who officially founded the village because in 1543, he founded the first Holy House of Mercy, which he called All Saints, a name that would pass to the village, the port of which was better located than the one in São Vicente. He was responsible for the transference of the harbor from Ponta da Praia to the city center, in the environs of Outeiro de Santa Catarina. Besides being the founder of Santos, he organized expeditions for the Crown and, afterwards, was also the governor of the Captaincy of São Vicente. He was once the biggest land owner of the coastal region. In 1551, was named by John III of Portugal, the Provider and Accountant of the Incomes and Rights of the Captaincy; in the following year, he built the fort of São Filipe in the island of Santo Amaro. He had a memorable participation in the defense of the captaincy against the attacks of the native Tamoios, then allied to the French. Later, on the orders of the third general-governor Mem de Sá, he carried out expeditions through the interior in search of gold and silver. The accounts say he arrived as far as Chapada Diamantina in the outback of Bahia. His attempts to enslave the natives resulted in a revolt that ended up by determining the appearance of the Tamoio Confederation, that could only be partially contained by the action of the jesuits Manuel da Nóbrega and José de Anchieta. When he died, he was a nobleman of the Royal House and one of the most respected men in the captaincy. The title of alcaide-mor (mayor) of the village of Santos passed down to his son, Pêro Cubas. In his epitaph, one can read that he discovered «gold and metals in 1560». In 1578, by the way, the news of the existence of gold and silver mines in São Paulo was current, according to an English subject who lived in Santos. (en)

Fondateur de la vila de Santos aujourd'hui cité), gouverna à deux reprises la capitainerie de São Vicente (1545-1549 et 1555-1556).

Fils de Jean Pires Cubas et de Isabel Nunes, il arriva au Brésil en 1531 avec l'expédition de Martim Afonso de Sousa, fondateur de la vila de São Vicente. En 1536, il reçut des sesmarias dans la nouvelle capitainerie de São Vicente, où il développa l'agriculture de la canne à sucre et monta un engenho de sucre. Il fut même le plus grand propriétaire de terres de l'actuelle Région métropolitaine de la Baixada Santista créant un port, une chapelle, et un hôpital ce qui fut l'origine de la vila et actuelle cité de Santos. Comme le port de Santos était mieux situé que celui de São Vicente, Brás Cubas fut le responsable pour le transfert du port de Ponta da Praia pour le centre dans les environs de l'Outeiro de Santa Catarina. Capitaine du donataire de São Vicente (1545), le 8 mai 1563 il fut nommé par Jean III de Portugal, administrateur et comptable des revenus et droits de la capitainerie ; l'année suivante, il fit construire le dans l'île de Santo Amaro. Il participa à la défense de la capitainerie contre les attaques des Tamoios, alliés des Français. Plus tard, à la demande du troisième gouverneur général Mem de Sá, il fit des expéditions à l'intérieur du pays à la recherche d'or et d'argent. Il serait arrivé à la chapada Diamantina dans le sertão de Bahia. Ses tentatives de réduire les indigènes en esclaves provoqua une insurrection de la qui a pu être contenue, en partie, par l'action des pères jésuites, Manuel da Nóbrega et José de Anchieta. Lors de sa mort, il était fidalgo de la Maison Royale et un des hommes les plus respectés de la capitainerie. Le titre d'alcaide-mór de la vila de Santos passa à son fils (fr)
