During my ethnographic field research in Marracuene, I attended the \u201cGwaza-Muthini\u201d celebrations several times as part of my interest in the cultural heritage of this community and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>My study highlights how \u201cGwaza-Muthini\u201d is both a traditional and modern ceremony that encompasses historical, cultural, and political dimensions. It also emphasizes the importance of considering it part of Mozambican cultural heritage as a crucial element of identity, commercial interest, and, above all, cultural recognition.<\/p>\n<h2>Biographical Note<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Dr. Fernando Matai Manjate<\/strong> earned a Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology from Uppsala University.<\/p>\n<p>He is a lecturer and researcher in the Department of Archaeology and Anthropology at the Faculty of Arts of Eduardo Mondlane University, Mozambique.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, he published a book titled <strong>Something good but nothing to be proud of \u2013 Inheritance and succession practices, and sociopolitical stakes in times of decentralization in Marracuene, Mozambique<\/strong>, based on his doctoral thesis.<\/p>\n<p>His main areas of research are <strong>property relations and rights, cultural heritage, and migration<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4699,"template":"","class_list":["post-4698","progetto","type-progetto","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/creaa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/progetto\/4698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/creaa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/progetto"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/creaa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/progetto"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/creaa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.dsu.univr.it\/creaa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
