The
island of mysteries, Ambrym presents an awesome lava landscape. The centre
of the island is occupied by an enormous ash plain about 12km across
representing the crater of the ancient volcano. Ambrym is the home of Mt
Marum and Mt Benbow volcanoes and holds the greatest reputation for major
sorcery in Vanuatu.
Ambrym is famous for its drums with vertical
slits and for its treefern carvings, sand drawings and Rom Dance, an
outstanding expression of the prevailing influence of spirits. For
