The men singing these songs held tall, well made assegais of Masai type, and wore large ostrich feather head-dresses, oval in shape like collars, suspended from chin to the tip of the head at an oblique anglw. It was raining hard at the time and the songs had to be recorded in a thatched shed which did not help the singers and somewhat dampened their voices. Old fighting song.
