Question
Among a subgroup of these people, death may be avenged by an executioner shaman who wears shoes made of feathers matted together with blood and human hair. Francis James Gillen and Baldwin Spencer assembled one of the first ethnographic studies of these people and were both initiated into the Arunta tribe within this group. Kurdaitchas (ker-”DAY”-chahs) from this group curse accused killers by pointing bones at them. These people hold dance ceremonies called (*) corroborees. Adolescent males among these people may have a tooth removed in the Bora initiation ceremony, or spend extended time away from their social groups in the Walkabout coming-of-age ritual. For 10 points, name these people whose rituals link them to the mythic “dream-time,” the original inhabitants of Australia. ■END■
