Abstract

The use of kava is ritualized in custom in many of Vanuatu’s societies, and often has considerable social and or sacred significance. This traditional significance of kava has already been fairly well documented. In the urban setting of Vanuatu’s capital Port Villa this ritualization is no longer a dominant feature of kava consumption.
