The sâre (pronounced /sa:r/, SAA-r), from Ndjarendie Saare, meaning "village") was a model of a small, self-governing polity that existed in Bahia before the rise of Hourege in the 10th century. Sares were organically centred around shrines or marketplaces, and associated with Bahian fetishism. They assembled into political entities no larger than a dayira, an ephemeral network of cooperative relations surrounding a center of power known as a mijini.
