The origin of the superstition in Surinamese people dates back to a distant past during the emergence of winti. During slavery, the Europeans people from Africa to work as slaves on the plantations. These Africans came from different villages and regions and all had their own customs. Because they were all in the same boat, they use their knowledge, faith and in order to survive. After the abolition of slavery there were also Chinese, Indians and Javanese to Suriname. That also had all kinds of use and so is winti arise: a combination of different population groups in which knowledge, rules of nature, spirits and ancestor worship and cultural traditions came together. People who believe in winti, believe that man, the Animal Kingdom and nature have energies. These energies are called winti's that man and nature have to ward off negative energies.
