Kampung Bena

Txena: The village of the wealthiest family in the area

Show your pride

Pak Moses
That's a Male Ancestor perched up there
The spear represents male ancestors.  Get it?

This is a Totem Culture

Monoliths mark sacred space within the village proper


A sacrilegious spider...or is it sacrosanct?

 Remarkably the people of Txena are capable of blending the faith of their Portuguese Catholic oppressors with their traditional totemic belief structure

Arguably poor in material wealth the villagers of Txena are rich with splendid panoramas
