Abstract

As a quilombola community, the religious field - in the sense advocated by Bourdieu – of Vila do Cravo, in the Brazilian State of Pará, it is configured based on social and cultural elements that go to form the mentality and the religious identity of the people who live in this Amazonian village. Based on a dense ethnography (Geertz) on the religious context, experienced daily, this article intends to analyze the local religious expressions, of a syncretic character, focusing on the relationship between the diversity of existing religious beliefs and practices and their role in maintaining a collective system of social solidarity and in the formation of group conscience of their two main religious belonging: catholic and evangelical.
