Atoni
The Atoni (also known as the Atoin Meto or the Dawan) are an ethnic group on
Timor, in
Indonesian West Timor and the
East Timorese enclave of
Oecussi-Ambeno. They number around 600,000. According to ethnographer Clarke Cunningham, their culture is notable for its spatial symbolism, associated with a gender dichotomy. Each cardinal direction is associated with a gender, as are different parts of a house. Sex and gender do not always line up, as an important lord is called a "female-man," and is accordingly always a man, but performs stereotypically female duties.
