How to think and study these sensitivities ecstatic experiences through political and administrative documents? These symbolic significations transgressed the precepts of the colonial project and contrasted what was provided in the Constitutions of the First Archbishop of Bahia (1707). As the analysis of texts teresianos assists this reflection? Feelings offenders were linked, in this event, the agency practices and fraud, where a interethnic contact, also entered into a mystical perspective, provoked codes that reveal movements of hybridity. These juremeiros become regarded as sorcerers by representatives of the Catholic Church, due to the maintenance of ritual practices that would be revisited throughout the colonial period, extending up after him, so as to transgress the colonial order. These elements also involved the Carmelite missionaries responsible for the village. Starting from an analysis based on Micro-History and the evidential paradigm, maintaining a dialogue with anthropology, reflect about the interethnic contacts occurred, as well as the mystical-religious elements that came Tarairiú individuals and in violation of the Carmelite ideal catechetical colonial.
