Abstract
This text is a new approach to the result of a comparative research carried through among Christian groups
and Candomblé believers in Recife (Pernambuco), privileging the latter. We gave preference to people
cognitively, spiritually and in identity committed, from their religious systematic practice or their mythical
experiences. The focal center of the research aimed at establishing a relationship between knowledge, power
and gender in the religious groups. This knowledge enclosed both formal school skills and religious. During
the bibliographical research we found, among a certain number of narratives, some that could be considered,
as much by practitioners as by studious, mythologies of Orisha’s origins and from which it developed the ideas
of mythbiographies and gender. In the case of the group of Candomblé, presented here, the research
involved 43 followers.
