For a long time, the Tambor de Crioula, like other Afro-diasporic dances, was stigmatized, misunderstood, and relegated to inferior status in different ways. To understand its messages and interpretations, it is essential to highlight the crucial influence of African heritage in shaping Brazilian culture and consider the colonial and slaveholding historical context of Brazil. Through the lens of orality, which includes oral tradition and bodily experience so prevalent within Afro-diasporic cultures, the transmission of memory through dance is emphasized. Analyzing the photographic records of the Folklore Research Mission, conducted in the late 1930s, and the process of designating the Tambor de Crioula as cultural heritage by IPHAN in the early 2000s, allows us to glimpse not only its connection to national identity but also the essence of this cultural practice and track the transformations that have occurred over time
