The establishment and expansion of bwiti among the Pové (Gabon)


Overview

Today, we can see that bwiti plays a very important role among the Pové. This bwiti, said to be of Pygmy origin, was transmitted to the Apindji, neighbors of the Pygmies. According to several oral sources, the bwiti was transmitted to the Pové by the Massango, their neighbors around Mount Iboundji. It should be noted that this bwiti, received by the Massango, was developed by the Pové. Of all the branches of Misoko bwiti, the Pové practice more ngondè, mabundi and mioba. In the province of Ogooué-Lolo, only one family is recognized as a mioba.
