Description: "A woman who had no child went to the 'doctor' who gave her medicine to make a child out of clay. He warned her that the child should never get wet. When it had grown up it was playing outside one day when the rain came. The mother quickly climbed onto an anthill and called the child 'Dongola. Dongola'! (clay). But the child got wet in the rain and when it came to the mother and she tried to pick it up it just melted away." This story which illustrates the intense desire of every African woman to have a child of her own is found in several parts of Africa. I first heard it in Southern Rhodesia among the Karanga of the Bikita district. In other socities the same instinct is frequently sublimated with pets or adoptions. Story song.
