Lihiric Culture
The Lihiric Culture refers to the traditions and practices of the people living on the Lihir Islands in Papua New Guinea. This culture is characterized by its rich oral history, vibrant art forms, and communal rituals that often revolve around the significance of the land and sea. The people engage in subsistence farming and fishing, which are integral to their way of life.
Social structure in Lihiric culture is often organized around clans, with strong emphasis on kinship and community ties. Traditional ceremonies, such as those related to coconut harvesting and sing-sing festivals, play a crucial role in maintaining cultural identity and fostering social cohesion among the Lihiric people.
