José Maria de Santo Agostinho

José Maria de Santo Agostinho

Miguel Boaventura Lucena (died October 22, 1912), known as José Maria or José Maria de Santo Agostinho, was a Brazilian mystic from the state of Santa Catarina, probably the western part of the state. Little is known about his early life.

In 1911, he began preaching against the Brazilian state. When his rebel forces went up against the Brazilian state military and police at Banhado Grande on 1912-10-22, José Maria was killed, but the battle resulted in a victory for his followers, who declared a "holy war" (now called the Contestado War) and believed that he would be resurrected.
