Silversea Luxury Cruises À BAWEMATALUWO

C305G2

The local village of Bawomataluo is found in the Nias Islands where the islanders were once said to be fierce. Traditionally, passing through various stages of growth for a child or juvenile required that animals be slaughtered or enemies killed. Therefore young men prepared to become warriors at an early age. One of the preparations was stone jumping, a ritual where youngsters jumped over 1.5 to 2-meter (5 to 6.5 feet) high stone towers.

Once a boy could jump over the stone tower, it signified that he was ready to assume the responsibilities of a man. Still today, Nias boys start preparing for their stone jump at the age of ten. In addition to the fascinating culture of Bawomataluo, there are birds to look for here including the resplendent Stork-billed Kingfisher.
