- Description: This hunting flute melodies improvised by the player as he sits iutside the hut of a dead friend have a strange fascination. They are played, they said, during the burial feast or wake. A woman can be crying in the background as in mourning. The method of blowing this pipe is interesting. The open, square cut end to the bamboo pipe is partly closed by the tongue, the wind being expelled out of the side of the mouth across the edge of the bamboo. The tongue is used to give a vibrato effect but the purity of tone is marred by the strong edge tone. These tunes, they say, are frequently used for lamenting the dead, and the player will sit all night outside the hut of his dead friend, improvising flute tunes throughout the hours of darkness. Ilonge end blown flutes.

- Description: It has been noticed that while the flying ants are leaving a nest the soilder ants beat their heads on the ground; a sharp noise will also make them do this. Perhaps the explanation may be found in this direction. Two split holes, called Luwanzo, are taken to an ant hill in the late afternoon during rainy weather and balanced carefully on small bunches of banana fibre. The players then beat out rhythms such as this "To the Queen Ant" so that she will send out her flying ants for the men to catch and eat. They say it works wonderfully. Percussion rhythm, using two Luwanzo poles.

- Description: It has been noticed that while the flying ants are leaving a nest the soilder ants beat their heads on the ground; a sharp noise will also make them do this. Perhaps the explanation may be found in this direction. Two split holes, called Luwanzo, are taken to an ant hill in the late afternoon during rainy weather and balanced carefully on small bunches of banana fibre. The players then beat out rhythms such as this "To the Queen Ant" so that she will send out her flying ants for the men to catch and eat. They say it works wonderfully. Percussion rhythm, using two Luwanzo poles.
