- Description
- A small steel washer was hidden in the sand. An old man had to find it. When he was 'cold' the muscian played loudly, 'hot', the playing died down. This is not unlike several other guessing games in other tribes, such as 'Siavuma' with the Zulu. In some cases the music is played or sung louder as the seeker gets nearer the hidden object, in others, the music fades away to a mere whisper. A musical guessing game 'Sebatlo' with a one stringed bowed Zither 'Segankure'. (Open string 146 vs.)
