In the 1970s, excavations at the Newton Slave Burial Ground uncovered the grave of a man believed to be a healer or spiritual figure. He was buried with powerful objects: metal jewelry, an iron knife, and a short-stemmed clay pipe likely made in Ghana.

Among his burial items was a necklace made from a mix of beads, some with fascinating origins.

One glass bead, made with European powder glass, was probably crafted in Ghana.

Another, a cylindrical carnelian bead, came from Cambay, India ; a region known for carnelian bead production since the first millennium. These beads were traded through East Africa, across the Sahara, and into West Africa.

Other elements of the necklace could have been acquired in Barbados, but together they reflect a deep continuity of African cultural traditions in the Caribbean.

Scholar Jerome Handler used ethnographic sources from West Africa to interpret the necklace, and strongly argued that the man was likely seen as an obeah or healer by the enslaved community at Newton.

This burial is one of the most powerful archaeological cases for the survival of African spiritual identity through the horrors of the Middle Passage and slavery.

Conor: Neat and tidy so that he can read his own manuscripts. It gets a little messier when he's not writing poetry or books ( bc this freak handwrites his novels before he types them ) but it's very neat and consistent.

I did a lot today! the first half of my day was lazing around, playing ts4 and enjoying my last official day of my mini-summer break before my summer course begins tomorrow. around 1pm i told myself it was time to get a move on, so i ate, did a short workout, did my skin care and then got to my chores. i'd really like to get myself on a daily routine like i do with my weekly one, but i have all summer to figure that out. i'll be in class late so I meal prepped dinner too (the pasta will probably knock me out but too late now 💀)!

Margaret Robinson, a summary.

Margaret Caroline Robinson grew up as an only child, adopted by a lesbian couple living in the small town of Mills, Virginia. Growing up, she was the perfect student — she had the grades, she participated in band and sports, and was a well - rounded student with a close friend group. The summer after senior year, when she was seventeen years old, almost eighteen, her high school class got together for one last hoorah before college started. Margie decided to go because why not — she would be going out of town for school after being accepted to Virginia Tech, aiming to get her undergrad degree in biochemistry before going on to get her master's degree and doctorate, but that night, everything changed.

It was a drunken accident that led her to run off in the woods, a silly game that her and her friends played — though, by some stroke of dumb luck, Margie ended up separated from her friends. At first, she didn't care — but then it got darker, and she sobered up, and she became terrified. And then, a growl, and a pair of glowing eyes. She tried to run, but she couldn't run fast enough. And then, searing pain on her leg. She fell, and then she doesn't remember what happened after that. She remembers waking up alone, having slept on her back, with no teeth marks of any kind on her leg. Perhaps it was a drunken dream. That had to be it.

She turned for the first time on the night of her eighteenth birthday, a month after she was bitten. She transformed in those same woods where she'd been attacked, drawn there by some unknown force. The force was the one who bit her, as she'd learn, a man named Lucas who had the same condition she did — lycanthropy, moon sickness, whatever other names it had. She was a werewolf, and he called her there to remind her of it. This would be the last time she ever saw him.

Margie doesn't remember much from her first transformation, just that she awoke in the woods two days later after a search and rescue party had been sent out to find her. Concerned for her safety, she was kept from attending at Virginia Tech, at least for the semester, and kept at home.

The next month, on the full moon, she transformed again. This time was agonizingly painful, and she remembered every single detail. This time, however, she was able to make it home the next day, blaming her not being in her bed on staying out late with new friends. It was this transformation that let her accept what she had become, though she didn't know how to handle it. She didn't have anyone to learn from, so she took to researching. Margie spent every day of her semester off in the library, reading as much as she could about werewolves and their legends.

After a couple months, she was able to return to Virginia Tech, but she still struggled with her new affliction. With time, she was able to get a system down, one that involved her driving out into the mountains where she could go through each painful transformation alone.

After two years of school, being a werewolf began to take its toll on her mental health. She dropped out of college and returned to Mills, where she works as a grocery store clerk. She longs for the life she once had in her reach, hoping one day she can be cured of what she considers to be a terrible disease. Any visitors who pass through may hear about a wolf, a little larger than one should be, roaming the woods on full moons. If you ask Margie what she thinks about the legend, she thinks it's complete and utter bullshit  — just don't ask her to hang out during the full moon. She won't show.
