Spritual alchemy in effect here. Joel, following his father’s footsteps, is also a practicing hunor (priest). Here he has laid out the proper combination of ingredients for one of the funeral rites of a town neighbourhood member. Blood (from a chicken), plam oil, flour, salt, water, sorabi (moonshine/spirit). This together with the right prayers are the essential components to certain rituals.

Agbomey, Benin, 2010
