at the end of the meeting between tribes, the uka uka fight is celebrated , a wrestling style fighting . 

it has a lot to do with regional tribe bonding between, a group of aproximately 10 tribes that have different languages but historically live very near and share certain costumes , trading and defending their land together....

for this big festivity the colours are amazing everywhere you look...

That's the most colorful fight I've ever seen. (Not that I've seen many....) ;). But still- it gives the sense of the event. Well done-i like how you've told us this story.
