Jarê

Not to be confused with Jare (rapper).

Jarê is a religious practice of African origin found exclusively in the Chapada Diamantina region, in the central region of the Brazilian state of Bahia, especially among the descendants of Africans from the Lençóis region.

It is characterized as a less orthodox branch of candomblé, forming an amalgam resulting from a fusion process that involves elements of the Bantu and Nagô cults, to which are added aspects of rural Catholicism, Umbanda and Kardecist spiritism.
