Abstract

This research seeks to understand the study of orality from the African cosmology, as a way of construction of knowledge and paradigms break the post-colonial process of understanding the multiple languages in human communication. Highlights the need to know the representation elements and symbolic understanding of the trailer within the oral interrelationships. Points to the symbolism of the Bantu people and other peoples in their weaving, which uses signals as a spiritual representation and as a means of social communication, with this oral structure expression of differences in the community. Speaks of the extermination of the many languages of indigenous peoples in Brazil, showing that they were exterminated with the advance of the cities into the woods and, the maintenance of linguistic diversity is maintaining biocultural memory of mankind. As a result of the observations, the research seeks to answer questions related to orality and its structural organization within the religious rituals and the formation of knowledge, linking to what is considered by the Bantu community as sacred.
