Deep in the mighty Kgalagadi, the fourth one (tsutsube) has a version (kuru) that can be danced around fire 🔥 below open skies all night - folk go into a trans, people get healed of sicknesses... it's evocatively exhilarating.

Frame three is the riel dans by Nama and Griqua people of the Northern Cape (and perhaps including Namibia) while frame four is tsutsube by Basarwa/San.

Tsustube is actually tswana but it’s also a Basarwa dance but they call it something else.
