==Malagan ceremonies==
''Malagan'' ceremonies are the most large-scale and famous of the many events that take place within the ''malagan'' culture. They take place irregularly, and are typically large and complex events, taking several days, and requiring months or years of preparation.
While a ''malagan'' ceremony is always held in the name of one or more people who have died in recent years, it is not at all merely a mortuary rite. Many other interactions take place within the overall event, including announcements, repayment of debts, recognition of obligations, resolution of disputes, and many other customary activities.
