Resumo: The theme arose from reflections on culture, memory, identity, orality and territoriality, with the proposal to address the feminine in Candomblé and its relevance in the sacred. Women who lead terreiros and become a reference in the community, based on an aggregating oral culture, which is based on itãs, sacred legends passed down orally to each generation, following the Candomblé tradition. The Yabás (Queen Mothers) are responsible for the balance of the earth and life. Majestic, warriors, loving, wise, peacemakers, their legends teach us how our ancestors lived. In Brazil, the first terreiro registered in the Ketu nation, Ilê Axé Iyá Nassô Oká, Casa Branca do Engenho Velho, begins at the back of the Barroquinha Church, in the heart of the Historic Center of Salvador, Bahia, around 1830 by three black women da Costa: Iyá Deta, Iya Kala and Iya Naso and bears the name Iyá Naso, a highly honorific title private to the court of Alafin de Oió. The historical narrative records that this empowerment of black women, religious leaders, occurred with a lot of struggle and suffering, during the 19th century, with reference to the Free Womb Law, in 1871, with the “earning slaves” or “freed women”., who circulated buying and selling goods, to generate resources to achieve freedom. It is the financial resources that enabled the rise of the Yalorixás and it is in the African-based religion that the stories of queens and princesses gain relevance and are preserved
