Description
Barnabas Garae achieved the highest rank 'ala' and killed 100 tusked boars 'wari vudulue' in a single day. On the same day, his much younger wife, Margaret, took the first of the major ranks in the graded society 'duruku' in Losimimbata, Longana. It is unusual for women to take major ranks. John Tagaro leads Margaret around her mwele, the cycas stakes to which her pigs are tied.
