            <text>The term "tubum" refers to "a boy sleeping with his grandmother (bubu)". The same string figure is known as "kwetabum" in the village of Wabutuma. The latter string figure is accompanied by a "vinavina" (oral text) which  clearly evokes this incestuous relationship. Although not comparable to the sister-brother incest taboo—which is the supreme one (Malinowski 1929 : 437, Weiner 1988 : 76)—as noted by Malinowski, "the maternal grandmother and her grandson are also sexually forbidden to each other, but there is no horror about this relationship, such incest appearing as a merely ridiculous possibility (1929 : 441)."</text>
