While it is obvious that the cultures of the conquerors have prevailed as the directing force in the various areas of the Caribbean, it is also true that they have never eliminated the influence of those religions with which they came in contact from the very beginning of the era of colonization.It is the purpose of this study, therefore, to examine two specific areas of contact (Mexico and Haiti) and attempt to:(1) Discover the factors within colonial development that contributed to the persistence of primitive religion;(2) Consider which elements of primitive religion have persisted; and,(3) Consider which elements of the Christian religion were readily accepted, reinterpreted and integrated into the folk religion. | ||
