📅 4 December 2014 📍 Brazilië

IPHAN registered Maracatu de Baque Solto, also known as rural maracatu, as Brazilian cultural heritage. Rooted in Pernambuco’s Zona da Mata and linked to Afro-descendant rural workers, the form brings together percussion, dance, elaborate caboclo de lança costumes, and collective preparation. Recognition followed years of practitioner knowledge and community mobilization. It placed a rural working-class tradition within official heritage policy, while underscoring that safeguarding must address the economic conditions and land pressures affecting its communities.
