KULAMA
The Kulama ceremony was given to the Tiwi people by the Nyingawi, who are little spirit people. It is a celebration of life and food, occurring at the end of the wet season. The Tiwi know when to perform Kulama when the last full moon of the wet season has a yellow halo surrounding it, which tells them that Japarra (the Moon Man) is ready for it to begin.
