Answer:

1: Slaves fled from the Maroons. As the English seized the Caribbean island of Jamaica from Spain in 1655 they walked free from their Spanisch-owned plantations. The term "mountain range" was extracted from the Spanish phrase "cimarrones." There was a misunderstanding. The Maroons fought back under their leader, Cudjoe.

2: A quilombo is a Brazilian backyard settlement established by African-born people, including Quilombolas and Maroons, or others known as Carabali. A Quilombo (Kimbundu word kilombo) is a quillombo (Portugese word kilombo, "war camp"). There was a misunderstanding. Quilombos was commonly the 'phenomenon of the pre-19th century.'
