The funeral of kabulu sacrifice is very grand. Silly head once saw the funeral of the last leader of longmaoniu tribe when he was a child, but it's really nothing compared with the funeral of kabulu sacrifice.
Perhaps, only the funeral of the chief of the whole tribe will be more grand than that of kabulu, but the stone bear has never seen the chief's funeral, so he can't compare it.
During the five days of kabulu's mourning, many people came from all directions. Most of these people are leaders and sacrificial rites of small tribes living near Dawu Mountain.
When the Cherokees moved south, their main foothold was not in Dawu Mountain, but in the north. It's just like the largest tribe of Cherokee now, and the location of the king's court where Cherokee chief is located, is in a flat and spacious valley about 100 kilometers north of Dawu Mountain.
About 200 years ago, one of the ancestors of kabulu left his post as the high priest of the Cherokee people, left the site of the Cherokee royal court with his people, continued southward along the valley of the Appalachian Mountains, and finally settled near Dawu Mountain.
After this large number of tribes settled down, they dispersed. In addition, in the past 200 years, gaoshu tribe has divided out several small tribes, just like longmaoniu tribe. Therefore, these small tribes living around Dawu Mountain are almost the descendants of kabulu sacrifice.
Therefore, every funeral of kabulu sacrifice, the leaders of these small tribes and the sacrifice must come to attend the funeral.
In addition to these people, the most important red city and white city of the Cherokee people also sent great figures to attend the funeral, and the Cherokee court also sent high priests to preside over the funeral.
The so-called red city and white city do not refer to the two cities. In this era, even the Cherokees, who were more civilized, could not build cities.
The correct names of red city and white city should be red city alliance and white city alliance.
When the Cherokees were driven out of the Great Lakes by the Iroquois and the delavais, they learned from their mistakes and prepared to change some of their former ways of life and war.
When the Cherokees established their foothold in Southern Appalachia, the whole tribe was divided into two alliances, namely the red city alliance and the white city alliance. Each alliance was composed of many tribes, and finally formed two supreme ruling bodies near the Cherokee court.
The red city alliance is the main war. All the tribal leaders of the red city alliance are under the command of a supreme military leader, who is responsible for external operations.
The white city alliance is in charge of peace, and all the tribal leaders of the white city alliance are also under the command of a supreme peace leader, who is responsible for all internal affairs, including providing sufficient logistics for the red city alliance and developing internal affairs.
Both the red city alliance and the white city alliance are the most important ruling bodies of the Cherokee people. The top leaders of the two alliances are appointed by the chief of the Cherokee people, and the two alliance leaders are only responsible to the chief.
According to the political division of later generations, if the chief is the president, then the leader of the red city alliance is the commander of the three armed forces, and the leader of the white city alliance is the prime minister.
The separation of military and internal affairs, and then the unified management of the chief, made the Cherokee quickly gain a firm foothold in Appalachia, and quickly became the largest Indian tribe in the area. The strong chekasa could not fight against the growing Cherokee, so they could only attack by stealth.
This time, the top leaders of the red city alliance and the White City Alliance personally came to attend the funeral of kabulu sacrifice. Even if they are noble, they must maintain enough respect for kabulu sacrifice. Other people may not know the power of high priest cabulus, but as them, they know it very well.
Moreover, even the tribal high priests, who were higher than them, came here in person, and they had no reason not to come.
Therefore, in these five days, the gaoshu tribe, which originally had only 300 people, welcomed 100 dignified bigwigs. The leaders and sacrifices of those small tribes were also very dignified. Although in the eyes of Shi Xiong, the so-called dignified bigwigs were inferior to the poor and lower middle peasants of later generations, they really belonged to bigwigs in the Cherokee tribe.
After coming to the gaoshu tribe, the first thing these noble figures should do is to pay homage to the kabulu sacrifice of the previous generation, which is commonly used in funerals all over the world, that is, the so-called "condolence".
Then, these great figures will personally visit Hongyun, who will take over the new generation of kabulu sacrifice.
Although kabulu sacrifice has long ceased to be the high priest of the Cherokee people, its status in the whole Cherokee people is still very high. Even the high priest of the tribe who came here to attend the funeral showed enough respect for Hongyun.
Because they are very clear that as long as the kabulu sacrifice is willing, the position of the tribal high priest is absolutely no one else's share. The tribal high priest is a real and important person who is equal to the chief.
As the guardian of the new generation of kabulu sacrifice, the stone bear accompanied Hongyun throughout the whole process and participated in the meeting process with those big figures.
All the big men were deeply surprised and shocked by the stone bear's physique. If you look at the whole Cherokee people, you can't find a second one. No leader would not like such a powerful warrior.
It's a pity that they can only salivate to themselves. After all, this powerful soldier has become the guardian of the new generation of kabulu sacrifice, which is beyond their reach. Even if the chief came in person, he could not take away the powerful soldier.
The funeral of kabulu also brought a huge burden to the gaoshu tribe.
The people who came here were all big people, so the sickly Lilei had to drag his sick body to receive them. As a result, only one day later, Lilei couldn't hold on any longer.
This guy was slapped by an adult black bear, and almost died. Even though he had been raised for some time, the injury didn't get better. I'm afraid he really can't hold on to such a toss now.
Similarly, the arrival of these great figures also put the food of gaoshu tribe to a great test.
Even in the age of ignorance, it is common that visitors come from far away, so the gaoshu tribe must prepare enough food for these people. Even if you can't eat well, at least you have to be full.
Originally, the food of gaoshu tribe was not abundant. When these people came, the soldiers of the whole tribe were mobilized to go out hunting. But even so, the food of gaoshu tribe was limited.
Fortunately, as soon as the funeral was over, these people would leave gaoshu tribe, so gaoshu tribe held on for five days until the funeral was held.
