Frantz, you are free to believe whatever you like.

I happen to have visited the protected site near Cap Haitian that has been 
declared to be "Bwa Kayiman". I didn't see any alligator there and I doubt 
there was ever any such pre-historical beast in that area. But who knows? Two 
hundred years ago, it might have been much more swampy. With the drastic 
change in the ecology I have witnessed in my lifetime, who knows?

I have also spoken to knowledgeable people of the area and according to them; 
the ceremony would have taken place in more than one place. Some places being 
devoted to Lwas that would not accept pig offering.

I appreciate your advice: "In addition to reading one must also analyze what 
one is reading..." but I mostly listened to our oral traditions, sorry!
