      They still practice this dance and ritual in their daily live. Some of them are for funeral and others for love and others for parties and happiness. From this place is also the most talented and hall of fame in Newyork Antonio Cervantes kid pambele who was the best boxer in the welter junior weight in all of time

    How did they get hold of those traditional African instruments....from knowledge pass down from their ancestors I guess

      Exactly. They have been a very closed community and that allowed them for centuries to maintain a culture of oral tradition that was transmitted from generation to generation in which the leaders took the disposition to teach music, dance, cooking, language, writing, etc.

    Roots don't lie. Dominicans have Kongolese in them these Palanqueros too. They talk just like us. They even play the drums the same way we do in Merengue and Palo. Palenqueros are the Latinos most similar to us that I've ever seen.

      You’re right. Palenque is the closer town in culture and roots to Africa in the all continent….

      @@cartagenafortravelers Regardless of that they are just like us. Cubans are mostly Yoruba, Haiti is made up of different ethnic groups from Africa by design (the French didn't want them to come together so they enslaved different tribes that couldn't communicate so they could not unite), Puerto Ricans have their own way of talking. Palenqueros the way they talk the way they play the drums is just like Dominicans. Look up Palo drums, Merengue drums and just Dominicans talking. They're just like us. That's my family.
