History
Cabeceiras began in 1942 with the construction of a house by Antônio Ribeiro de Andrade, nicknamed "o Bahiano", who in turn built a chapel honoring Santa Rosa de Lima, along the banks of a stream called Taboquinha. New families arrived and the name of Cabeceiras was given due to its location near the source (cabeceiras) of the stream. In 1952 the village (povoado) was elevated to the status of district (distrito). In 1958 it was dismembered from the municipality of Formosa.
