Im Dorf Barama tanzen Verwandte des Toten in Trauerkleidung zum Orchester aus fünf verschieden gestimmten Flöten, drei Rasseln und drei Trommeln in schnellen, stampfenden Schrittkombinationen und mit kurzen Phasen von Paartanz.

In the afternoon of the burial day the villagers assemble for the mourning dances before the homestead of the deceased. The dance is accompanied by the orchestra which consists of five flutes differently pitched, three rattles and three drums. The mourning dances, called dodi or mutu, are charaterized by stamping steps. The steps are carried out very quickly, and the dance requires a considerable amount of energy.
