The bread was too old, too symbolic, too loaded with pre-Christian meaning the church could not fully control. A century later, Britain seized Jamaica and brought that bread with them. What happened next was never recorded — not because it wasn't significant, but because the colonial archive was never built to record the decisions of the people it had enslaved.
