Again brother David,you are confusing what I mean,I learn this patterns with the people which belong to the araras lineage in Cuba and confronted with this people from Guinea without knowing them and it was recognized by them and also by the Senegal/Drummers,(and still drumming with a Djembe/Djun-Djun teacher from Guinea,(when I go to Galveston)....You are confused Guinea was the name used for that are of West Africa before being called,Ivory Coast,Gold Coast,and Slave Coast by the Portugese,also the Golf was called,the Golf of Guinea,..Senegal,Ghane,etc.etc., are names which were used after the colonization of West Africa...so the name Guinea is more originally of that area than those names used after.Dr. Zaragemca

you are telling me that becouse they are from Guinea they have not relevance to that culture and that is wrong becouse that name was used before the other individual nemas for the whole area, the Araras is before that name also.Dr. Zaragemca
