Title: Clandestine recording of sidjat ceremony at Akaeme

Description: The recording is often faint, and is very distorted at the beginning (it sounds more natural when played at ~1.2x speed), but some chants are audible. The recording was made (ostensibly clandestinely) by Lokiru while Weatherby was traveling in Europe. The date is approximate. I believe the recording to be of a ceremony to protect crops from locusts.teu0008_02 represents 0:00-18:26 (the entirety) of track 02 of teu0008.
