Cakalele

Cakalele

Cakalele refers to a kind of ceremonial war dance originating from North and Central Maluku. The dance is performed using a narrow, wooden shield, sometimes also referred as a cakalele, though usually known by the North Moluccan Malay term "sawako" or by a local name, such as Tobelo "o dadatoko".

[http://www.hawaii.edu/cseas/pubs/cakalele.html Cakalele] is also the name of a now-defunct inter-disciplinary journal of Maluku studies published by the University of Hawai'i Center for Southeast Asian Studies between 1990 and 1999.
