KOTOBIAN TADAU TAGAZO DO KAAMATAN TO ALL SABAHAN!



It's the harvest festival as the Kadazandusuns call it.Once again, the Kadazandusun and Murut Communities come together during the month of May to offer to thanksgiving to 'Bambaazon' (Rice Spirit) for a bountiful Harvest.This festival is honours to Bambaazon and also to Huminodun, the only Daughter of Kinoingan (The Creator).


According to the Kadazandusun Genesis, the Bambaazon is actually part of Huminodun's body who is sacrificed herself to save the people from starvation. Then one of the body parts of Huminodun transfigured into the rice spirit (Bambaazon) that created rice to feed the starving which is why the Kaamatan is revered, venerated and celebrated as much as it is by the people.

The Harvest Festival month-long celebration is launched on the 1st May at pre-chosen district in Sabah. The grand finale of the Kaamatan festival will be held on 30th & 31st May every year. Guest and visitor are most welcome to join this occasion. Let us make this event more merieer.
