- Description
- There were certain children of this village who were killed by a lion on their way home and the event was perpetuated in song by the girl who had to break the news to their mother. The players shake their rattles in unison until one gives the sign for the routine to begin. When they complete it and return to the beginning of the verse again. One woman was clapping. Chitsukulumwe dance with gourd rattles and clapping.
