    EPIGRAPH: They were not living beings. We thought they must be our ancestors, come back from the land of the dead. At that time we knew nothing of the outside world. We thought we were the only people alive. We believed our ancestors had gone over there, turned white and come back as spirits. That was how we explained the White Man. Our dead has returned.
