-- KINGSTON, Jamaica -- A community of descendents of freed slaves is blaming the recent defeat of Jamaica's long-ruling People's National Party on the prime minister's improper use of a sacred horn.Has Dalton done his "sweetgrass ceremony" with his aboriginal pals this year?
The Accompong Maroons are the descendants of slaves freed by the Spanish in the 17th century to repel invading British forces.
The community has lived semiautonomously in Jamaica since 1739, when they signed a peace treaty with the British after resisting them for decades.
He'd better not screw that up.
