| Excerpts |
6 p. 122 Tromba ceremonies are lively dramas where the spirits of dead royalty come to life and interact with the living... This they do by possessing mediums, the majority of whom are female. Tromba spirits may be aggressive and, at times, physically threatening, playful, or flirtatious. |
