> Rachel Chamber is a research student in the department of the Study of

> Orthodox Church in the highland areas of Ethiopia. I have developed the
> idea
> of a continuum of healing which extends from the healing practices fully
> authorised by the church through the occult magic conducted by the
> musicians
> of the church to the spirit possession cults that the orthodox women
> engage
> in. She is exploring issues of gender and authority in relation to these
> various healing methods.
