!ko-Buschmänner (Botswana, Kalahari) - Tranceritual »guma«
Aus einem abendlichen Scherztanz, an dem Männer, Frauen und Kinder teilnehmen, entwickelt sich ein Tranceritual, das bis zum frühen Morgen dauert: Extraktionszauber durch Handauflegen, Zusammenbrechen und Wiedererweckung der Trancetänzer.
Spontaneous trance ritual which developed on April 4th 1972 around 10 p.m. at Bere from a joking dance, in which women and men participated as dancers. The dance changed into a trance dance which lasted with pauses till the next morning. The men dance around the women, who sit on the ground clapping the dance-rhythm with their hands and singing. The dancers touch the women with their palms in an attempt to extract sickness and evil from their bodies. They especially takes care of a woman and her child who is obviosly sick. They kneel down in front of her and touch her while singing. As a precaution other women are also touched. Several dancers are affected by trance and collapse. Women and men attempt to receie them by the aid of smoke, water and massage. The expressions of the men in trance, particularly their suffering and fighting agonies are highly impressive.
