This research aims to understand the sacred (re)veiled in oral narratives of women from the
Santíssima Trindade-Pará Community. The social relevance of giving time and voice to knowledge,
religiosity and customs of those who inhabit or have inhabited marginal spaces, reflecting their narratives
in search of identifying possible temporal interferences, and also what the Community represents through
their voices. For this, the investigation presented a methodology with a qualitative approach with
descriptive characteristics, considering the oral narratives of three quilombola women from the
Santíssima Trindade community. The constitution of the data took place through observation,
interview, informal conversations, audiovisual record and notebook. The results show that the
sacred is (re)veiled through manifestations of religious rituals with devotion to the saints, mainly
to São Pedro - the patron saint of the Community, as well as in rituals of healing with herbs or
rezadeiras. It is noteworthy that the sacred is also (re)veiled through elementary or more
elaborate hierophanies such as the human one. It is concluded that in the sacred (re)veiled in oral
narratives of the women of the quilombola community Santíssima Trindade there is an
intertwining between life and memory to the history of the Community itself, becoming a source
of knowledge to know the history of the place where the sacred is (re)veils with representation
and belonging to the community of black and quilombola women, in addition to a totalizing
ideology.
