Description: The daughters names were Melia and Elena Mahuto. This is the story of a girl who could do no manner of work and had to be looked after by her sisters. Eventually she was married and when she went to her husband's home she took three of her young sisters with her to look after her. One day when they had gone off to collect firewood, her mother-in-law asked her to pund a little grain in the mortar. She told her that this was impossible and that she must never do a stroke of work or she would die. The mother-in-law did not believe her and asked her to do just a few strokes with the pestle so that she could see for herself what would happen. She agreed and immediately fell down dead. When the three sisters returned with the firewood they found their sister was not there. Where was she? No one knew. They guessed what had happened and immediately they sang a magic song which revived her sister and she came alive again. When her husband's relatives saw all this they agreed that she must return to her own home and never come back as she could never make a good wife. Ngano story

Description: The scale of these two instruments is not clear from these examples. It would appear to be heptatonic in one case and hexatonic or even pentatonic in the order. The fact that an adequate number on intervals exist in the lower octave and are not complete in either, argues an ablity to think heptatonically. The scale was as follows;- 404, 344, 308, 296, 252, 236, 202, 180, 160, 118, 101, 90. Bitanda kakunda dance with two Chizanshi box mbira, 2 basket rattles, whistle and hand clapping.
