 Past times
Jamaica is an island full of folklore, magic, and
spirituality, with a rich culture of traditions,
customs, and rituals, many of them religious in
origin (although by no means all). Jamaican
traditions are often a mix of African and
European customs – modified and adapted over the
years to create the unique Jamaican culture that
exists today.Although many Jamaican death
rituals are dying out nowadays, the ‘Nine Nights’
ritual is still going strong – it’s an extended wake
that lasts nine days and traditionally involves
music, anecdotes, lots of food, and plenty of rum.
Friends and relatives will meet and celebrate the
life of the person who has passed, and the
gatherings are normally very lively and fun.
Traditionally, the person will be buried after the
ninth night, once the celebrations have
finishedKumina is a Jamaican religious ceremony
involving music, dance, and spirit possession, and
is a way of celebrating and appeasing ancestors. It
is perhaps the tradition most closely rooted in
African cultures – the Kumina religious group
came originally from the Congo.
Beaches

in Jamaica since it is a big island

sand, and seaside bars in more
neglected destinations like Treasure
Beach & Port Antonio.Below listed

Food
The richest Jamaican cultural
history lesson is in the food Jamaicans eat.
To conceal their whereabouts, the Maroons
devised “jerking”, a method of spicing and
cooking pork underground so that smoke
would not be seen. Today, jerk pork, jerk
chicken and jerk fish are everywhere. To feed
slaves cheaply in the 1700s, the breadfruit
was brought from Africa, as were a variety of
roots, vegetables and fruit. To preserve meat
and fish, spices and pepper were added and
unique seasonings, like our famous
Pickapeppa sauce, were devised. Cassava, a
root tuber, was cultivated by the Tainos and is
still used today to make "bammies' ', a flat
toasted wafer eaten with fried fish. Another
traditional bread, “festival”, is frequently
served with jerk. Jamaica's favorite dish is
the gently spiced ackee and saltfish.
