Lieutenant Cameron's Sketches in Central Africa: Wedding Dance at Kibaiyeli, 1876. Creator: Unknown

Lieutenant Cameron's Sketches in Central Africa: Wedding Dance at Kibaiyeli, 1876. A...specimen of native African manners...a wedding party at Kibaiyeli, entertaining themselves or the bride and bridegroom with a dance. The bride is lifted as high as possible upon the shoulders of one strong person, while another person helps to keep her up, and so they jump and frisk about with her, as we should romp with a little child. The bridegroom is afterwards to be seated in the middle of the party, who all dance round him, exhibiting his new wife, and shouting or singing their congratulations to the new husband'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876
