- Candomblé abstract "Candomblé (Portuguese pronunciation: [kɐ̃dõˈblɛ], dance in honour of the gods) an African-originated or Afro-Brazilian religion, practiced mainly in Brazil by the "povo de santo" (people of the saint). It is a mixture of traditional Yoruba, Fon, Ewe and Bantu beliefs which originated from different regions in Africa. It has also incorporated some aspects of the Catholicism over time. It officially originated in Salvador, Bahia at the beginning of the 19th century when the first Candomblé temple was founded, but it traces back to the earliest days of the slave trade, when enslaved Africans brought their beliefs with them when they were shipped to Brazil. Although Candomblé is practiced primarily in Brazil, it is also practiced in other countries, including Uruguay, Argentina, Venezuela, Colombia, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Spain, having as many as two million followers.The religion derives from African Traditional Religion beliefs and practices. It was developed in Brazil with the knowledge of African priests who were enslaved and brought to Brazil, together with their mythology, their culture and language, between 1549 and 1888. It is an oral tradition and therefore has no holy scripture. Practitioners of Candomblé believe in one all powerful God called Oludumaré, who is served by lesser deities, which are called orishas. Candomblé practitioners believe that every person has their own individual orisha which controls his or her destiny and acts as a protector. Music and dance are important parts of Candomblé ceremonies, since the dances enable worshippers to become possessed by the orishas. The rituals also involve offerings from the mineral, vegetable and animal kingdoms. There is no concept of good or bad in Candomblé; each person is required to fulfil his or her destiny to the fullest, regardless of what that is.".
