If a chief visits another village, he should walk with short steps and lean somewhat forward, not looking behind him. He holds a staff in his hand (fig.1), and a little bell is fixed to the corner of his mantle, so that all who hear the tinkling shall immediately understand what social rank he holds. All his followers, even the slaves, must walk slowly. A more important chief must be carried. His sister’s children blow trumpets and beat gongs, while his wives are among those who have to carry his belongings. If the man gets into conversation with anyone, he must grind his teeth (kweta meeno), from which it follows that he is a great chief. (Laman 1953:43)
