Warren Perry at Central Connecticut State University might be a good person to ask. He has been involved with the African burial ground project in New York.

Anyone on the list familiar with a burial tradition reputedly brought by slaves from Africa that involved driving a wooden dowel or pin into the head of the deceased prior to burial?
