Bibliographic Citation:Nggili, Pitu Sopune (Ebbe), Danerek, H. Stefan, Danerek, H. Stefan, Pitu Sopune; 2023-09-20; Genre: adat. Title: Kena morene. Pitu Sopune recorded and interviewed bapak Nggili at his house in Cawalo, 20 September 2023. In this narrative Nggili talks about local beliefs concerning animals, how the ancestors use them to communicate. Nggili mentions boimesi cricket, heko kingfisher, sololika brown-tailed fanbird, nggole kéli pyton, as well as about ’létu’, a supernatural type og kidnapping that occurs, rarely, on Palu’e Island. The cricket comes to cry in the house to ask for food, actually the ancestors who require ceremonial rice. If it cries three times it means somebody is fine, healthy from disease. Small crickets are good, large crickets are bad. The kingfisher’s first sound informs that there are ’suanggi’ around, the second that somebody is cut by a machete, incl. the supernatural one of the suanggi. The pyton, when it comes to the vilage it is looking for an inividual house actually. It is a sign of appending disaster. The ancestrors are mad because the House has not fulfilled its adat dowry obligations, it has eaten other people’s things (pigs or other valuables). The recording and the annotation work was supported by a Firebird Foundation Supplemental Research Grant for the Documentation of Oral Literature and Traditional Ecological Knowledge.
