Favela: community or plant?

At the beginning of the 20th century, in Rio de Janeiro, when soldiers returning from the backlands of Bahia, after fighting in the Canudos War, were left without salaries and with no place to live, they – as well as poorer people banned from downtown Rio – started to improvise houses in Morro da Providence. On that hill, there was a plant that they discovered in the Northeast and that was called… Favela! Hence, Morro da Providência was nicknamed Morro da Favela and all the other communities that were organized on hills were renamed favela.
