Abstract:—The Chapada Diamantina (Diamond Highlands) is the name given to the northern half of the central mountain chain which cuts through the state of Minas Gerais and continues on up almost directly northward through the dry interior of the state of Bahia, Brazil. Nestled into these rugged hills are several small mining towns that still preserve their century-and-a-half-old architecture. Two of them, LencOis and Mucugë, are protected as national historical monuments
