Macumba is a term commonly used to refer to a range of religious practices and beliefs in Brazil. It is often associated with African-Brazilian religions, such as Umbanda, Candomble, and Quimbanda, which combine elements of different spiritual traditions including African tribal religions, Spiritism, Indigenous beliefs and Catholicism. Macumba typically involves nature-based rituals, spirit worship, and the use of charms, amulets, or other sacred items. It can also refer to a form of folk music or dance associated with these religious practices.
