Music Of East Timor
East Timor
's music reflects its history under the control of both
Portugal
and
Indonesia
, who have imported music like
gamelan
and
fado
. The most widespread form of native folk music was the
likurai
dance, performed to by women to welcome home men after war. They used a small drum and sometimes carried enemy heads in processions through villages; a modern version of the dance is used by women in
courtship
.
