Шаблон:Short description

Шаблон:Infobox ethnic group

The Abun, previously also known as Wen and Karon, are an ethnic group of New Guinea, residing in the Sausapor district of the Tambrauw Regency in the province of Southwest Papua. They speak the Abun language. They live in the Sausapor, Jokte, Emaos and Uigwem Шаблон:Link-interwiki and are of the clans Yekwam, Yenjau, Yeblo, Yesnath, Yenbra, Yenggrem, Yesomkor, Yerin, Yeror, Yewen, Yemam and Yesian.[1]

Name

The Abun were originally the Wen from the Tambrauw Mountains (locally called the Шаблон:Lang Mountains). After having socialized with the Шаблон:Link-interwiki near the coastline, they were then called the Karon (meaning: the people from within), while the ones who continued to stay in the mountains were called Karondori. However, this eventually had negative connotations and they finally renamed themselves Abun.[2]

Culture

Farming

The Abun are primarily banana farmers. 21 categorizations of bananas are named and are divided by whether it is eaten fresh or cooked first. The harvesting of the bananas are done by both men and women; typically but not necessarily being the men chopping the trees and the women transporting the fruit.[3] On most days, they head to the farms which are around 1–2 km away between 8–9am (WIT) and return home by 5pm.[1]

Leadership

The highest ranking leader of the Abun tradition is called the Шаблон:Lang who governs the Шаблон:Lang in the village. Every Шаблон:Lang also has a leader Шаблон:Lang who help the Шаблон:Lang govern. Anyone can become a Шаблон:Lang with their own efforts, but has to be rich in cloth (Шаблон:Lang), and also be brave, wise, generous and diplomatic.[3]

Salara Dance

The Salara is a traditional dance performed in a group with a snake-like formation possibly in a circle; holding one another by the arms to form a chain. It is said that the ancestors of the Abun people turned into a snake and left the mountains for the beach.[1]
