These figures played a central role in Lucayan culture, serving as objects of worship and mediums for communication with the spiritual world. Zemis were believed to provide protection, guidance, and blessings to individuals and communities. They were integral to various rituals and ceremonies, reflecting the Lucayans' deep spiritual beliefs and connection to their ancestors.
