arrangement concerning bringing in the head |
text: |
The people of Wangla finally find the following solution to their dilemma concerning the heads. They return to their village today and tomorrow will build their field huts, a task which they otherwise would have to postpone for too long because of the head genna. (84) I then am supposed to give them the head only the day after tomorrow, but the men of Oting declare that they could not return to their village without their portion as such a return would be too much of an embarrassment. On the other hand I am firmly determined not to miss the bringing in of the head in Oting. |
