Summary
| Description |
English: Bundu girls oiled
Before the establishment of British rule the Mendi chiefs governed entirely through the secret societies, which even now have great power. The Bundu is the society for women, and the majority join, as the membership confers a certain status on them with proportionate privileges. Deutsch: Mädchen des Bundubundes, der geheimen Gesellschaft für das weibliche Geschlecht in Sierra Leone. |
