History
History tells that a few years later several missionaries of the Franciscan order arrived in the region, who were enchanted by the topography of the place, which had high and low plans, changing its name to Monte Santo. Accustomed to the old name of the city, the inhabitants ignored the Franciscans and kept the name Coqueiro Seco. The only historical record found concerns the construction of the church covered with Portuguese tiles and a large patio, which continues to this day as the mother of the patron saint, Nossa Senhora Mãe dos Homens, built in the 17th century by the Portuguese José Cabral. When Satuba was elevated to the status of autonomous municipality on August 20, 1960, Coqueiro Seco became part of its territory, still as a village. Only on November 15, 1962, the city was politically emancipated,

District created in 1938. Elevated to the category of municipality in 1962. Emancipation: 11/15/1962
