There always comes a time in our lives when we are challenged, called by a need that comes from afar: that of rediscovering our origins. Whether or not we have known parents or whether they are unknown, we will one day begin to ask questions to the generation directly above but also to our grandparents. Silences, unspoken things, secrets exist in many families which, for the most part, resurface directly or indirectly or are revealed in particular on the occasion of family changes: romantic commitments, marriage, divorce, new birth, loss of a child, reunion with childhood friends. By connecting with our history, by finding places, events that will confirm or deny this or that important decision in our life, we give substance, coherence to our entire existence. It is with a view to answering the questions "who am I and what is my origin?" that this book highlights some aspects of the culture of the Zim people of Pala.
