My yard, in Old Harbour Bay, a small fishing village on the south coast is alive and purposeful, with scents of fruits and sea-breeze... and freshly laundered clothes hanging on the clothing lines.My family perform rituals that are passed from generation to generations. They were not written, only spoken, memorise and practice.  Robyn, Old Harbour Bay Jamaica. Norman Wallace Jr Photography

The care of I O'man, foods, herbal remedies and tonics. Sea, hot spring baths and oiling rituals. Move 'Yuh' body to the beat of the drum.

To be continued.
