- Description
- Amongst these little people the words for song and for dance are almost synonymous. Because so few local Bantu are able to speak the Pygmy language, it is most difficult to obtain exact informationfro them on this account. Much argument and discussion went on before and after each item. The high pitched beat is the sound of the stick striking the outside of the drum. Dance with conical laced drum, pipes and hand clapping.
