content: The Recovering Voices Community Research Visit of Matawai Maroons from Suriname took place September 8-19, 2018. These comments were made by community members, elder Jozef Dennert, bassia Tina Henkie, and Rolien Sallons on Friday, September 14, 2018. The group conferred on comments to make about the collections objects so all notes are attributed to the group as a whole. The Matawai word for this is "kuja." It is big to eat out of. Calabash is essential for maroons. We can use it for anything. We always plant it to have the tree nearby. Bigger can be cooked with.
