>They worship Prince Philip
The South Pacific tribe that saw Prince Philip as a living god will likely turn to worship Prince Charles, a leading anthropologist has said.
A group of villagers on the tiny island of Tanna in the Vanuatu archipelago believe the Duke of Edinburgh had descended from their spiritual ancestors and worshipped him, praying that he would one day return to bring prosperity to the village.
As news of his passing reaches the island, they will respond with dances and ritual wailing, along with a ceremonial drink, said Kirk Huffman, an anthropologist who is familiar with what is known as the Prince Philip Movement.
“I imagine there will be some ritual wailing, some special dances. There will be a focus on the men drinking kava – it is the key to opening the door to the intangible world,“ Mr Huffman told the Telegraph.
“On Tanna it is not drunk as a means of getting drunk. It connects the material world with the non-material world.”
