description: "Zacimba Gaba was a princess from the Cabinda region of the Kingdom of Kongo, in modern-day Angola, who was forced into slavery and taken to Brazil in 1690. She was taken to the Fazenda José Trancoso plantation in what is now the state of Espírito Santo. She suffered from torture and rape at the hands of the plantation owner, José Trancoso, whom she eventually poisoned and led a mass fleeing of enslaved people from. She established a quilombo settlement on the outskirts of Riacho Doce beach, in what is now the municipality of Conceição da Barra, near the village of Itaúnas. Afterwards, she began building canoes and organizing nighttime attacks on the port near the village of São Mateus, freeing recently arrived enslaved Black people."
