Summary[edit]

Description
English: The centre also has Migongo house, in which tools used in sacred ceremonies and other traditional tools are kept.

Three ‘religious’ ceremonies were observed in traditional Rwanda. They are Kubandwa, which our guide equated to the current baptism in Christian faith. During this ceremony, traditional tools such as inanga (a string musical instrument or harp) and small pots were used.

The other is Guterekera, which can be compared to imploring saints that’s mainly done by Catholic believers today. In this ceremony, members of a family would gather around a fire, carrying banana and honey beer to beseech ancestors for help.

Sometimes, Girimpuhwe said, the family would receive a message from their ancestors conveyed in different ways.
