On the African west coast when they call the boys for initiation, they whirl the great bull-roarers and make a sound which is very impressive in the night.
They call it the voice of the great spirit.
And when they hear the bull-roarers no woman is allowed to go out of the house, for if she should see that her husband was the sacred spirit, she would go to the devil.
No wife has ever been convinced that her husband was a superman, the voice of the great spirit; she says that is all nonsense.
Therefore if a woman or a girl dares to peep out of the hut she is instantly killed.
It is quite serious; even when women see the totemistic ceremonies of the men quite by chance, they are killed by the spear. ~Carl Jung, Visions Seminar, Page 183
