<br/><br/> This article analyses the origin of the concept of geohistory in the works of the French historian Fernand Braudel. We aim to show that it did not appear in La Méditerranée et le Monde Méditerranéen à  l'Epoque de Philippe II (1949), as historiography normally asserts, but in his prison notebooks written between 1941 and 1944. In them we see the influence of French and German geography in the development of geohistory as well as Braudel's divergences concerning the treatment given to geography in Lucien Febvre's La Terre et l'Evolution Humaine (1922). This debate defines what we are calling 'a Braudelian chapter in the history of geographical thought'.
