Resumo: The Yoruba form one of the largest ethnic-linguistic groups in West Africa. Traditional African Medicine practiced by the Yoruba includes a number of practices employed in general health care services. With the forced coming to America from the Portuguese colonization, these peoples brought their rituals and their vision of medicine to Brazil, originating the religion known as Candomblé. The starting point of the present work was to carry out a review study on Traditional Medicine used by African peoples of Yoruba ethnicity in Africa, drawing a parallel with their descendants who practice Candomblé, in Brazil, in an epistemological perspective, reflecting on history, sciences and health of these peoples, and the challenges to their consolidation as a traditional medical system.

A Medicina Tradicional Africana praticada pelos Yorubá inclui uma série de práticas empregadas nos serviços de cuidados gerais de saúde. Com a vinda forçada à América a partir da colonização portuguesa, estes povos trouxeram seus rituais e sua visão de medicina para o Brasil, originando a religião conhecida como Candomblé. O ponto de partida do presente trabalho foi realizar um estudo de revisão sobre a Medicina Tradicional empregada pelos povos africanos de etnia Yorubá na África, traçando um paralelo com seus descendentes praticantes do Candomblé, no Brasil, em uma perspectiva epistemológica, refletindo sobre história, ciências e saúde destes povos, e os desafios à sua consolidação como sistema médico tradicional.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-03-21info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/375910.1590/SciELOPreprints.3759porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/3759/7013Copyright (c) 2022 Jonatas José Luíz Soares da Silva, Suzana Guimarães Leitão, Danilo Oliveirahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Jonatas José Luíz Soares daLeitão, Suzana GuimarãesOliveira, Daniloreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2022-03-13T02:09:01Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/3759Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2022-03-13T02:09:01SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
