| General note | Kumina is a tradition of the Congo people of Africa and their Jamaican descendants. Kumina ceremonies includes singing, dancing and drumming. It is mainly practiced in St. Thomas where the drumming and dancing of the Akan people was retained. There ceremoines are usually held at wakes, entombments or memorials and at births, weddings, thanksgiving and other festive events or at healing ceremonies to lift "spirit sickness" off the afflicted. |
