A significant portion of our cultural heritage in Jamaica that dates back many years is Jonkunno. This is the comprehensive legend that the elders passed down to us. A Jonkunno group consists of four musicians and eleven main characters,there are also other recently developed characters. The elements of Jonkunno include dance, music, excitement, and a little scare factor. KJG was formed in 1986 with the goal of igniting interest in and support for this aspect of Jamaica's cultural heritage. Since then, its principal evangelist, Carlton Walters, has championed dancing, music, and a love of folk traditions, which have declined somewhat, particularly in recent years. However, the lively folklore's characteristics are still present today in the form of festivals and street dances, fun days and noteworthy occasions (weddings, parties, etc.). We encourage you to interact with this website and experience the happiness that so many others have.We are excited, and would love your participation, any feedback which could help us to grow. Jonkunno came to us as a story, It was an afrocentric origins story of great importance. The Jonkunno or Jonkunnu enslavement days unfolded within the context of African tribes, where enslaved individuals performed for the slave masters as a form of mockery. By examining the ethnic groups of Ghana and the Dogons, the Igbo, the Ibo, and the Ewe of Togo, one can identify parallels in the practices of these various tribes. The interconnected stories of these organisations highlight commonalities. In Jamaica, specifically in St. Mary, particularly in the central city of Port Maria, we actively implemented these practices. Consequently, this cultural tradition spreads throughout the Caribbean and other global regions. Despite its global dissemination, we strive to maintain its authenticity.
