OTHER CULTS
The Ila had no organized first-fruits ceremony. Each man made a seasonal offering of fresh cobs to his ancestral spirits. His wife would usually be present at such a ceremony.
After a war it was the custom for Ila warriors to bring back the heads of slain enemies and captives as trophies. The owner of such a trophy performed a special dance in public and then presented it to the chief. This was known as the kufumba ceremony and the warriors had to be ritually cleansed after it. A doctor applied medicine to their tongues or bathed them in the fumes of certain medicines (atamukodi uyayiwa and kupupulula).4
