Description
Note: "Yu-yu-play, Pidgin." (Mündliche Mitteilung von Ch. Geary, ca. 06.1995). Note translation: "Known in pidgin as the 'Yu-yu play'." (Oral information from C.M. Geary, 06.1995). - NB here and in the adjacent captions the German word "Spiel" (= literally "game") is difficult to translate, but may well refer to a quasi-military ceremony with music, a usage for "Spiel" which is known in German. (PJ 04.2001). - Event with European presence (see the table in the entrance (PV 02.2002). - NB the version of this key image at QE-32.0065 is of much better quality (PJ 07.2002).
