IPHAN registered Tambor de Crioula do Maranhão in the Book of Forms of Expression. The tradition brings together drumming, dance, and song, with strong ties to Afro-Maranhense communities and devotion to Saint Benedict. Recognition honored cultural work maintained by practitioners, including women dancers known as coreiras, while making safeguarding a public responsibility. As with other heritage listings, the measure created visibility but did not erase racial and religious prejudice or guarantee stable funding and space for community-led practice.
