The Maroons continued their rebellion against the colonial government and the plantation economy. They set up a free society, practising witchcraft, which the British military and the local government feared. However, rivalries between different bands meant that large-scale conflict was avoided. When the British emancipated all slaves, many slaves opted to live in the forests rather than return to plantation labour; they called themselves Maroons - followers of Maroon - or "Bush Negroes". Some avoided capture or relocation by moving into the interior. Other Maroons fled to domestic slave communities, formed in the late nineteenth century, created by British planters and officials who relented on the issue of slavery. The Obeah religion spread rapidly in these communities. The outlawing of Obeah, as practiced by African Maroons, in the early 20th century was a crucial element in the movement towards greater acceptance of Maroon culture. This came about after the British enacted a series of a new laws, such as the Slavery Abolition Act, which led to their emancipation in 1838, as there was no alternative employment for slaves, nor other means to support themselves. The 1838 Act was followed by the Slavery and the Plantations Act, which made it illegal to trade slaves nor import any new slaves. The Act also gave planters the power to punish slaves miscreant, those who disobeyed them and resisted being forced into slavery. Planters and Parliament believed that the slaves were content, but following the 1838 Act there was a sharp rise in the level of rebellious activity in Jamaica. The number of slaves who fled to Maroon communities increased. d2c66b5586
