Meke-Meke. This dance is a great feature of the national life or great ceremonials of the Fiji Islanders. It appears in various forms according to the locality in which it is performed, but the general idea is alway the same, that of a measured series of quaint movements to the barbaric music of the home-made instruments and weird chanting of other members of the tribe.
