Mathias's Welcome Speech

Soon after Margaret and Bill returned to Aoba with their son Sean for a year of fieldwork, Chief Mathias Tariundu hosted a welcome back feast in their honor. The wrapped bundles contain Aoba/Ambae's favourite feast food, lap lap, given to them, but then redistributed to everyone attending the feast in Lovatuweliweli.
