Ngowe-1900, lo mmandla wawongwa eBrazil. ICalçoene yaba ngumasipala ngo-1956.

 IJografi 
ICalçoene ijikeleze emantla nasempuma kuLwandlekazi lweAtlantiki, emazantsi ngoomasipala base Amapá nasePracuúba, kwaye ngasentshona ngoomasipala baseOiapoque naseSerra do Navio. ICalçoene  ukusuka kwikomkhulu lelizwe laseMacapá. Umasipala uqulathe i-23.23%  Ihlathi lase-Amapá State, iyunithi yolondolozo yosetyenziso oluzinzileyo eyasekwa ngo-2006.

Enye yezona ndawo zinomtsalane kubakhenkethi lunxweme lwaseGoiabal kulwandle lweAtlantiki, ekwiikhilomitha ezili-14 ukusuka kwidolophu yaseCalçoene. Unxweme luziikhilomitha ezi-4 ubude kwaye amanzi amnyama ngenxa yempembelelo ye-Amazon. 

 Calçoene megalithic observatory 
NgoMeyi ka-2006, abembi bezinto zakudala babhengeze ukuba bafumene indawo yokuhlola inzululwazi ngeenkwenkwezi yangaphambi kobukoloniyali, ekusenokwenzeka ukuba yayineminyaka engama-500 ukuya kuma-2,000 ubudala, kufutshane neCalçoene. Ubudala busekelwe kwiishedi zomdongwe kwisiza esiye sabhalwa kwiminyaka eyi-2,000 ubudala. Isiza siphezu kwenduli kwaye sineebhloko zamatye ezinkulu ezili-127 zegranite, nganye kwiimitha ezi-3 (9.8 ft) ukuphakama, kwaye zembiwa ngokuqinileyo emhlabeni. Umembi wezinto zakudala uMariana Petry Cabral we-Amapa Institute of Scientific and Technological Research (IEPA) uthe indawo yokuqwalasela yenzelwe ukuba ihambelane nenjikalanga yasebusika. Ezinye imibutho yezolimo nayo yavelisa iindlela ezintsonkothileyo zokulandelela amaxesha abalulekileyo kwikhalenda yelanga. Ngesinye isikhathi, abaphandi abazange bacinge ukuba naziphi na iinkcubeko kwi-Amazon Basin ziye zaphuhlisa ubunzima obunjalo bokwakha indawo enjalo. Oku kuye kwayiguqula indlela abacinga ngayo.
