Antônio Cardoso is a municipality in the state of Bahia in the North-East region of Brazil. Its name is a tribute to Colonel Antônio Cardoso de Sousa (1848–1932), the former owner of extensive properties and a figure with political and economic power. A namesake grandson was the first mayor of the municipality. The occupation of the territory of Antônio Cardoso began in the 17th century, with Jesuits who built a chapel in honor of Saint Stephen. The former inhabitants were the Paiaiá indigenous people. As of 2022, its population was divided into 55% Black, 40% Pardo, 4.9% White, and 0.1% Indigenous and 0.1% Asian.[3]
