page 23  However there's no need to go beyond Formentera to see that even there the word "totem" can refer to other things: for example someone has written that Es Vedrà, the rocky island full of legends near Ibiza, is "like a totem stuck in the sea": Es Vedrà is, like those other mountains, like a Mount Olympus, a totem stuck in the sea, the line drawn between earth and heaven, between the human world and the world of the gods or God. — Xiruquero-kumbaià, translation from "La Crida d'es Vedrà"

So it's possible that someone could have used the word "totem" for other things in Formentera.



Many mention the windmills as one of the first things to see in Formentera. Of course this was a destination for Bob Dylan fans, and Syd was a big Bob Dylan fan. By the 1960s these windmills had fallen into disuse and became hippy communes – Bob Dylan is said to have lived inside 18th century Molí Vell for several months. … its warped wooden sails are still capable for turning the grindstone. — Iain Stewart, The Rough Guide to Ibiza & Formentera  sources →  Xiruquero-kumbaià.
