Walrus Gumboot


In the folk belief system called hoodoo, a Mojo is an amulet consisting of a flannel bag containing one or more magical items. It is a "prayer in a bag", or a spell that can be carried with or on the host's body. In Professor Mundeign's catalogue the idiosyncratic indexing includes the Mojo with the Urim and Thummim, and the new Waitrose polythene shopping basket.
