Anthropology
personal belongings of ‹a dead person›, consisting of various objects: clothes, mats, baskets
| Li-loko nasu idi po li-bu me le-su.We collect the belongings of the person who died, and set fire to them. |

There is a tradition on Teanu, to burn the belongings of a person who died. People will collect some of the belongings of the person who died and place them on a mat, which is then brought to the customary house (toplau). The villagers come in, drink kava and eat the pudding, while the person's belongings are there for everyone to see. Finally, the women – never the men – seize the mat with the dead person's properties, and they set fire to it.

Dance festivals ✧ Li-mini ngapiene
Among major community events on Vanikoro, the main one was a dance festival called ngapiene. While such events occur seldom nowadays, they are central to many traditional stories. The festival revolved around a sort of greasy pole (blateno), erected in the middle of the village area (mane), loaded with fruit and food. Stomping boards (tepapa*) were laid out in a circle all around that pole, half-buried in the ground; for days on end, villagers would stomp those boards (~wate tepapa) and dance (~mako, ~pinoe) in a joyful and rowdy atmosphere. Such dancing festivals could last for several weeks on end, bringing the whole community together.
