Alcântaras
Os traços da cultura africana também ecoam na alma do povo, como a preferencia por roupas coloridas, uma batucada, o sorriso fácil estampado no rosto. Na serra, devido as boas condições climáticas, a maior presença de chuva devido a sua altitude ocasionando um solo profundo, dando condições para a existência de densas florestas. Em seu excelente artigo “A Onipresença da cultura alcantarense", o autor explica que o solo profundo favoreceu a intensa prática de atividades agrícolas no município, tendo como mão de obra o trabalho escravo, surgindo baixas de cana, roças, plantações de algodão, casa de farinha e alambiques. O sítio Algodões, com seus antigos casarões, dos poucos ainda de pé, registram esse tempo cheio de contradições: onde havia fartura de gêneros alimentícios o trabalho escravo estava presente; sendo homens e mulheres reduzidos a meros objetos de trabalhos. Diante das condições sub-humanas, os cativos fugiam para locais distantes, de preferencia onde havia uma fonte de água, sendo formado nesses locais pequenos quilombos, como é o caso do Sítio Picos, Sítio São Bernardo e do sítio Benedito. Uma marca muito presente também são as cerâmicas de argila moldados com as mãos e a feitura de cestos de cipó, uma espécie de fusão da cultura indígena com a cultura africana, dando o caldo da cultura imaterial do Sítio São José dos Alcântaras.
