Cemis are both portable artifacts and embodiments of persons or spirits, which the Tainos and other natives of the Greater Antilles (ca AD 1000-1550) regarded as numinous beings with super-natural or magic powers. This title looks at the relationship between humans and other (non-human) beings that are imbued with cemi power.
