Ancient legends will be told, the cultural practices will be explained. Hear of the battles that were fought against other tribes and cannibalism, see what the village living conditions once appeared like. Learn of the plants once used for medicinal purposes, and many other fascinating historical facts about this ancient and sacred village.
