Deep in a remote part of Eastern Equatoria, the spectacular Lopit people reside in a region near the border of Uganda with South Sudan.  Spanning just six sub-communities, these lesser known people of South Sudan celebrate important events of life through dance and ceremonies that are performed for initiations, funerals, weddings, the elderly or a successful hunt.  One of the most spectacular celebrations performed by the Lopit is a funeral, where young Lopit warriors will don huge headdresses fashioned out of cowrie shells, ostrich feathers and native grasses before they dance in circles out of respect for a recently deceased person.
