O Candomble jeje-nago estabeleceu-se na Bahia nos finais do seculo XIX e primeiros anos do seculo XX, durante o periodo final da trata de escravos oriundos da chamada Costa dos Escravos. Diante de um novo contexto cultural e regional, que era a Bahia de entao, os escravos das cidades yoruba e ewe-fon, muitos dos quais representando grupos etnicos/reinos rivais, forjaram uma nova realidade religiosa, a partir das memorias partilhadas e das similitudes culturais e, bem assim, colhendo contributos a outros grupos etnicos africanos e ao catolicismo popular. Este texto foca a problematica do esquecimento em termos: das diferencas etnicas e politicas nos episodios fundacionais do Candomble, nao obstante a diversidade das suas nacoes (ficcionais); da escravatura como um processo de reconfiguracao identitaria que conduziu a uma especie de amnesia causada pelo traumatico desenraizamento/exilio forcado; da agencia masculina. De igual modo, esta em analise a complexa utopia da fundacao do Candomble como uma religiao de continuidade com a Africa e de realeza africana, numa mistura entre “passado mitico” e “lar imaginado”, narrativa que curiosamente esquece o processo crioulo de descontinuidade e “adaptacao criativa”, visivel nos aspetos esteticos do ritual. Abstract The jeje-nago Candomble was established in Bahia between 19th century and the early years of 20th, during the last days of slave trade, from the so-called “Slaves Coast”. In a new cultural and regional environment – which was Bahia in those days –, African slaves from Yoruba and Ewe-Fon towns, many of them representing rival ethnic groups/kingdoms, forged a new religious framework using shared memories and cultural similitudes, and collected pieces from other African groups and Portuguese Catholicism. This text focuses the oblivion of:  ethnic and political differences in Candomble foundational moments, despite it (fictional) “nations”; slavery as a process of identity reconfiguration that led to a sort of Amnesia caused by the uprooting trauma/forced exile;  male agency; and the complex utopia of Candomble as a religion of continuity to Africa and African royalty, in a mixture of “mythical past” and “imagined homeland”, which curiously forget the creole process of discontinuity and “creative adaptation”, visible in ritual aesthetic aspects. Keywords : Ethnicity. Amnesia. Candomble. Identity.
