Abstract
Description
Genre: Myth. Title: Dau bitu (Seven persons). Seven persons, seven stars, feast on grilled pigs for seven nights, preparing to descend to the earth, to the sea, for a swim. They do, and there is discourse with others, seemingly earthly beings. They disappear at Sea and the parents marked the. Sky with their faces; they are named persons. The star sign reaches into the ocean/horizon with the evening star, Noa. Its position on the sky marks the different agricultural seasons, for preparing the fields, planting, and harvesting. The story is also called Dau hene (Six persons), possibly because the Evening star is included, or because it is The Pleiades (Seven Sisters), of which it is possible to spot up to 12 stars. Seven of the twelve stars can be discerned on clear nights outside of the cities, but often only six are visible.Mama Roja recorded at her house in Wolondopo, Edo, by Pitu Sopune (Ebbe) 21 Oct -15 directly on the H4N Zoom. If it sounds like he used the Lavelier, it is because Roja's voice is loud (the way it is). Compare with Punga Hari ‘Dau bitu’ and Lengu Nandene ‘Dau hene’..
