  "lineage": "Fijian meke collective chant-and-dance tradition of the Fijian iTaukei (indigenous Fijian) population. The meke comprises several sub-forms: meke wesi (spear-dance, male-warriors), meke iri (fan-dance, women), meke ni vakatara (sitting-dance), and seasea (women's standing-dance), each with distinct choreographic vocabulary and song-accompaniment. Performance involves a vakatara dance-troupe with parallel singing chorus and slit-drum-and-bamboo-stamping-tube percussion. The canonical post-independence Fiji-1970 cultural-revival under the Fiji Museum and the Pacific Theatre formed institutional preservation infrastructure. Distinguished from neighboring Tongan lakalaka by Fijian meke's warrior-and-women parallel-track choreographic structure and Fijian-language repertoire.",
