What you learn in the Batuque Quiz

The Batuque is the religion of the orixás of Rio Grande do Sul, with five nations (Oyó, Jeje, Ijexá, Cabinda and Nagô) and a line that goes from the newest orixá to the oldest, from Bará to Oxalá. The quiz covers these fundamentals and the proper names of the South.

Many things change in relation to Candomblé: Xapanã responds for the energy of Obaluaê, the hunter becomes the pair Odé and Otim and the amalá is pirão de farinha with meat. To see the differences side by side, read Batuque and Candomblé.

Each answer brings the source article. To start with the basics, see what is Batuque and the list of orixás of Batuque, and then test the Orixás Quiz.
