Abstract

The patrons saints festivities held in the quilombolas communities of Sítio Histórico e Patrimônio Cultural Kalunga, in Goiás, are traditions that bind symbolic values to the material reproduction of life. The purpose of this article is to understand the meaning of these festive traditions and its insertion in a heritage site, from a patron saint feast in which was held fieldworks and participatory research - the Romaria de Nossa Senhora Aparecida. In its religious dimension, the feasts and the religious rituals assign senses of belonging to the space and, to the group that share and experience this space, their own identity. Thus, is possible to say that the heritage of these communities is not perceived by its residents based on the attributes of an institutional legacy to their territory, but mainly, by the meaning of tradition collectively experienced, which maximizes the affective relations in the place.
