Mushama

Event
A festival held on the island of Hateruma, Okinawa Prefecture on the date of the Bon festival according to the old calendar (July 14) which memorializes people's ancestors and gives thanks for both safety and bountiful harvests. Mushama is derived from the local word mussaha, meaning funny or interesting. During the festival, drum, pole, kyogen farce, and traditional dance performances are held to entertain attendees. Locals who have moved away from the island also return for the festival, and Hateruma becomes more lively than at any other time of the year.
