About the rite
In Kambala, Nuba boys wear horns and heavy animal skins in an endurance dance that involves whips. As an initiation, it marked their passage into manhood and readiness to take on family and community responsibilities.
Kambala is also performed at cultural festivals and on public stages, where the dance can be presented on its own.
