Itabuna, Commercial center in Bahia, Brazil
Located in southeastern Bahia at 54 meters above sea level, Itabuna extends along the banks of the Cachoeira River near Ilhéus.
The area transformed from Arraial de Tabocas, a forest crossing point for cattle drivers in 1857, to an official city status in 1910.
The name originates from Tupiniquim language, combining 'itá' meaning stone and 'abuna' meaning father, referring to a notable rock formation.
The municipality covers 401 square kilometers with a population of 214,123 residents, making it the sixth largest city in Bahia state.
Once Brazil's second-largest cacao exporter, Itabuna's agriculture sector changed direction after the Crinipellis perniciosa fungus affected local crops.
