Different societies and cultures have their own concepts of time, of the passing of life, of past facts and of history. In societies with a mythical culture, 'without history', unfamiliar with writing, time is circular and life is believed to be an eternal repetition of happenings in the remote past as narrated by the myth. Afro-Brazilian religions, constituted from African traditions brought by slaves, still cultivate a notion of time that is very different from "our" time, that of the West and of capitalism (FABIAN, 1985). Because of its link with the notion of life and death and concepts of this world and the next, the notion of time is essential to the constitution of religion
