About this picture: Haitian Vodou or Vaudou (French pronunciation Voodoo is a syncretic religion originating from the Caribbean country of Haiti.

It is based upon a merging of the beliefs and practices of West African peoples (mainly the Fon and Ewe; see West African Vodun), with Arawakian religious beliefs, and Roman Catholic Christianity, which was brought about as African slaves were brought to Haiti in the 16th century and forced to convert to the religion of their slavers, while they largely still followed their traditional African beliefs.
