CONTENT DESCRIPTION
Abstract"The dance associated with this song is performed by initiated women of the mamzaw society. This society maintains close ties with the men's singer society (the tatawkya) and must grant permission in order for the women to perform this dance. There is much teasing on the part of the men in the process of granting permission, but at one point in the dance the men and women of the two societies dance together."
