 Item
Reference Code: GBR/0115/RCS/Y3043BB/34

Scope and Contents

63 x 40 mm. After some time they broke up and stood about in groups chanting and beating time with their hands then formed up into two long lines and faced each other. The two foremost women then linked hands and there was a sort of 'tug-of-war'. This happened three times and most of the participants were the younger members of the chief's harem.
