The fruit is used by the Sakalava for tattooing. Probably the same as mabiba [Swa. bibo, plu. mabibo], the cashew apple. The cashew nut is called koroso. [Swa. korosho.] The juice of the apple is used in tattooing, but the fever-producing quality is not attributed to the cashew only. The same thing is said about all acid fruits. Medical science has established the correctness of the native observation. [1.2] |
