Fetish Market - March 06
Serving All Your Fetish Needs

It's time to play guess the dead animals!

Katherine took these photos on a trip to the Fetish Market with Ian, Emily, Emily's friend Maya, and Bob Pinto (from AISL). 

The first report: it didn't smell.

The rest of us stayed home with a feverish Rebecca.

This is an easy one.

These, of course, aren't the fetishes themselves.  All these creatures are used to create unique and personal fetishes to treat your particular problem.

E
At first I thought they were ducks.

Once you discuss your issue with the chief medicine man, he will choose the proper ingredients, grind them into a powder, then create an amulet, potion or other aid.

Each item also comes with specific instructions for its use, and each item is specific to an individual.  Woe to those who use someone else's fetish!

It's up to the gods (via magic cowry shells) how much you'll be charged for the chief's services and items.

To the animal lovers out there I'm happy to report the following: No animals were hurt in the collecting of fetish ingredients.  All these creatures died natural deaths.  Really.  The guide said so.

A: Primate of some sort and what looks like a llama  B: water buffalo  C: turtle  D: owls  E: bats  F: armored something, hmmm, anyone?  G: hedgehog  H: goat
