GOULART, Milainy Ludmila Santos; DAMASCENO, Leonardo Graffius  and  TAVARES, Otávio. Tradition and identity: the Ticumbi of Itaúnas on stage. Rev. Motriviv. [online]. 2021, vol.33, n.64, e83265.  Epub Oct 25, 2021. ISSN 2175-8042.  https://doi.org/10.5007/2175-8042.2021.e83265.

The aim of the study is to present an interpretive narrative of the Ticumbi of Itaúnas, showing its structure and meanings. To this end, we carried out fieldwork using direct observation as a method of data collection combined with semi-structured interviews during the Festa de São Benedito and São Sebastião in Vila de Itaúnas/ES, from January 2018 to 2020. We understand that the Ticumbi of Itaúnas is a tradition that has been experienced and materialized within a community and festive context that gives identity to remnant quilombola communities, presenting movements that lead to continuities and discontinuities within the tradition itself.

Keywords : Tradition; Identity; Remnant quilombola community; Ticumbi of itaúnas.
