    If this war dance were to spread throughout the Micronesian islands then it'll help strengthen it.

    Can someone give me the history of what this dance is about? What are then men saying when they chant and dance?

      So in the very first chant they’re chanting about when cpt wilson’s ship crashed in palau (our island) & they pulled it out. When they say, “ikamu!” & doing a pulling movement they’re literally saying, “it can move” talking about the ship being able to be pulled out. It’s a big part of palauan history (cpt wilson helped us). Then the 2nd & 3rd chants are about war of when invaders came & tried to take over. So you can see them doing stabbing movements saying they stabbed them & put them to the ground (its much deeper story). And at the end the leader says, “kom ngar tial rokui?” meaning, “are you all here?” asking because its a blood bath. And they all reply YES!! I hope that kinda helped 😊
