Healing the Exposed Being: The Ngoma healing tradition in South Africa General Anthropology Turkey and ReindeerThis ethnography explores the Ngoma healing tradition as practiced in eastern Mpumalanga, South Africa. Bungoma is an active philosophical system and healing practice consisting of multiple strands, based on the notion that humans are intrinsically exposed to each other and that this is the cause of illness, but also the condition for the possibility of healing. This healing seeks to protect the exposed being from harm through augmenting the self.
