It is thought that Aranha was born in the Costa da Mina (Gold Coast) region of what is now Guinea.[1] She was probably born between the years 1720 and 1730.[1] She would have been enslaved as a child, around 1740.[1] It is likely she was sold as a slave in the square of Santa Maria de Belém do Grão in Pará; the identity of the person who purchased her is unknown.[1] Aranha was sent to Cametá, where she was forced to work as a slave on a sugarcane plantation.[citation needed] It is not known how she managed to escape, however, with hundreds of others, she managed to form one of the largest and best structured quilombos in Brazil at Mola, a site at the headwaters of the Itapocu River.[citation needed]
