| Mamala’s Ceremony |

After this, the VIPs left for Mamala, and I
soon followed them just in time to catch the traditional dance of that
village. It seemed like a mixture of the two women’s dances in Morela:
elegantly-clad female dancers were dancing with spears here. By this
time I had missed two dances in Mamala, however they were not by that
village but by their gandong partners. No cakalele was performed in
this village. |
