Arará
Arará is a minority group in Cuba (especially in the provinces of La Habana and Matanzas), Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and elsewhere in the Caribbean who descend from Fon, Ewe, Popo, Mahi, and other ethnic groups in Dahomey. ''Arará'' may also refer to the music, dance, and religion of this group of people.
==Origin==
The word ''Arará'' and its cognates, Rada (Haiti, Trinidad) and Arrada (Carriacou), are derived from Allada, a city in Dahomey. Arará cabildos (ethnic associations) were formed in the 17th century, and regional cultural differences still exist among Arará communities in Cuba which date back to Africa (Arará Dajomé, Arará Sabalú, and Arará Magino). The name Sabalú derives from Savalu, a town in northern Dahomey, and "Magino" derives from Mahi. Slaves from these areas were taken to other parts of the Americas. Surviving examples of Dahomeyan culture (such as music and religion) can be found in Haiti, the Grenadines, and the Brazilian cities of Sáo Luis do Maranháo, Salvador, Recife, and Porto Alegre.
Haitian emigres began arriving in Cuba in the late 1790s following the Haitian slave rebellion of 1791, when many French moved to Cuba and took African slaves with them. The Haitians brought musical forms with them, such as tumba francesa and Dahomean ceremonial drums.
