The Bonerate people are an ethnic group in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. They inhabit around the Selayar island group such as Bonerate, Madu, Kalaotoa, and Karompa islands.[2] Sexually provocative behaviour occurs in possession-trance ritual practiced by women only[3] and were carried out in a way by which they smother glowing embers with their bare feet at the climax of the ritual.[4] The Bonerate language shares many similarities with the Butonese language.[5]
