Ana Jacinta de São José, known as Dona Beja ( January 2, 1800, December 20, 1873 ) was a Brazilian historical personality in the 19th century, who had been known to be influential in the region of Araxá, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

She met farmer Manoel Fernando Sampaio (Antonio), her catechism colleague before she was abducted and forcibly for taken to Paracatu, with whom she ended up having a long relationship years later.

Conservative local society did not agree to see her as a victim, but as a seductive woman with questionable behavior and the women of the city considered it a great risk to the ethical values of the time.

At her brothel, one day Antonio invaded and consummated with Beja and consequently she gave birth to a gild child.

On December 20, 1873, she died of nephritis and was buried in a coffin decorated with zinc, which is suspected to have been found in June 2011, during an excavation for the construction of a fountain in Estrela do Sul, where there was the old cemetery.
