Miguel Boaventura Lucena (1889 – October 22, 1912), known as José Maria or José Maria de Santo Agostinho, was a Brazilian mystic from the state of Santa Catarina, probably the western part of the state. He was born near Curitiba, but little is known about his early life.
In 1911, he began preaching against the Brazilian state. When his rebel forces went up against the Brazilian state military and police at Banhado Grande on October 22, 1912, José Maria was killed, but the battle resulted in a victory for his followers, who declared a "holy war" (now called the Contestado War) and believed that he would be resurrected.
