Summary/Abstract: The paper introduces Iyaric, the language of the Rastafari movement of Jamaica, as a creative reaction to the domination of European cultural patterns and as one of the main markers of Rastafariidentity. Besides the religious context of Iyaric, attention is also paid to the language situation of Jamaica as well as to the social and cultural context of its beginings.
