First of all, it's YEMAYA. Not Jemanja. And it's not a ROLE. Yemaya is a saint. She's the mother of the ocean/water/hurricanes, anything to do with water. That's what represents her. You drink it, you're made of it.
She's just a saint. But that's what she "owns".
Jemanja is the goddess of the seas. It's an Afro-Brazilian mythical figure.
Freak out without a Carnival. The Jemanja devotees of the so-called Naptha Cult get drunk on Naptha and start praying to Raquel Welch! I kid you not. watch out for I better not say it... welll, its a long way down.

Santeria is not a religion but a practice.

Santeria - song - was created on 1997-01-07.
I would imagine Jemanja or Yemaya , who is a maritime goddess but in no ways a (mermaid) She is portrayed as an Idealized Hispanic beauty with a crown and usually clad in an Empire Gown in light blue. the Naptha cult in Union City has identified her with the actress Raquel Welch and offer libations of Naptha to her, inhaling the fumes. Oh well, they said old submarines went into mothballs.
Hector Lavoe was a believer of santeria, watch the movie El Cantante you'll see, Sincerly, Anonymous practitioner of Santeria
Santeria does not have any uniform apparel codes- like some religions do. There is no prescribed habit or costume for Santeria priests, to my knowledge.
An Orisha is a deity or a spirit within the Santeria religious tradition. For more information on Orishas, it may be helpful to visit websites with information on Santeria such as Santeria Tribe, Santeria Church or Wemba Music.
