- Description
- "I shall be all alone, when I lie in the grave." The theme of death is common in songs of this part of the Congo and also in Uganda. Until recently the Medje were notorious for cannibalism. Strangers, it is said, had little chance of emerging from the Medje palm forests alive or enjoying a lonely grave. Tipoyi carrying song with basket rattle.
