Caribbean symbolism
By Orestes del Castillo
Santeria was born on a Cuban beach in 1517. The first slave shipload had just arrived. The Yorubaslaves, uprooted from their native Africa, found themselves kneeling before a Catholic priest, who, in an unknown language tried to introduce them to a new faith which would save their souls as it gave them the spiritual strength to endure slavery. The bright light of the torches made the metallic attributes of the Catholic liturgy shine. The scented candles achieved a magical effect on the mass of people. The religious images showed different saints, in whom the slaves immediately recognized the familiar traits of their own saints. The rhythm of the Latin chants was different from the rhythm of the distant and unforgettable African drums that they heard for the last time in Nigeria, on the West African Coast. The sound and the bite of the whip indicated that slavery was also born on that day.î
