Batamani Maenaa’adi is a man from Saua in the mountains behind Sinalagu who Keesing worked with extensively. He was still living in 2020.
Ma’aanamae was a highly knowledgeable man from Gounaile in the ’Ai’eda area inland from Sinalagu Harbour. He died in 2004.
Sango is a ritual dance performed to ’auilangi panpipes as part of a ritual complex (also called sango) performed around at the opening of newly rebuilt skullhouses. Only ’Ai’eda people still perform it ritually. Various versions were performed, for different reasons, from ’Oloburi all the way throughout northern Malaita.
Recording continues on Keesing Cassette Tape 128.
