| Description: | This zapal tells the story of a girl who marries a balo bi (kind of caterpillar typically found on taro leaves) who has the ability to change form into a human. On their wedding night, the Balo Bi eats his wife, their daughter. This zapal serves to warn against marrying off one's children to strangers about whose background little is known. This zapal has several tellings. See the zapal called "Kebokoq rini en" in this corpus for a variant telling. | |
| Bunaq "zapal" is an endangered form of fairy tale-like folk story traditionally told in the family group at night before going to sleep. With the arrival of electricity and television in Bunaq villages, the traditional night time forum for telling "zapal" has been lost. As a result, children know little or nothing of this aspect of Bunaq culture; only elderly community members and some adults know individual tales from the vast canon of "zapal" that the Bunaq once had. The "zapal" encapsulate and elucidate aspects of the Bunaq world view and their environment. The documentation of "zapal" therefores provide an unique perspective on the traditional livelihoods and beliefs of the Bunaq for researchers. | ||
