Kumina
Description
An account of the resource
Kumina continues to be recognized and preserved as a unique and distinct facet of Jamaica’s African Heritage. It is still an integral feature of worship ceremonies especially in the eastern region of the island where it is practiced and passed from generation to generation.
As a musico-religious form, Kumina involves not only music and dance, but also animal sacrifice, possession, libation and “sharing of bread” with the ancestors and the attendees at the ceremony.
