Sir? Do you have anything on ‘Ethnocentrism’? Dr Stanley Griffin (right) with students visiting the UWI Museum. Full disclosure: These were not the Carib Civ students! We didn’t catch him on camera that time.

In 2006, an American archaeologist working in Jamaica brought her parents along for a visit. One highlight was a trip to the Trelawny Yam Festival in Albert Town. Dr Jillian Galle and her parents Pete and Janet remember the winding drive trip up the mountain, the hustle and bustle and constant music and the many kinds of yam spread out on offer. As a souvenir, Pete bought himself a Trelawny Yam Festival cap, which became a prized possession, hanging with other caps at his farmhouse in the state of Maine, USA.
