This term is also used to refer to
language,
customs, or other
cultural manifestations that remained intact in the
culture of enslaved
Africans after their forced
emigration elsewhere.
The most famous examples can be found in the Gullah culture of the Southern coast of the United States. Gullah people still speak the common language of the Rice Coast of Africa, use the same methods of cultivating rice, and weave baskets nearly identical to their African counterparts.
