Description:Ol man i bin kamap long tomba
At the beginning there were only women, and they married dogs. One day a woman saw a man’s reflection in the water, looked up and saw a man. She hid him into a tomba tree, lest other women would be jealous. He proved to be better than dogs at everything. Eventually several men came out of the tree and married Awiakay women. The tomba tree later turned into a stone. It is a symbol of the men’s house.
