Chibados were involved as "spiritual arbiters in political and military decisions" and also performed burials. Olfert Dapper described the chibados as shamans "who walk dressed like women." Portuguese priests and Jesuits described how chibados lived as women and were able to marry other men with no social sanctions. Instead, "such marriages were honored and even prized." ''Chibados'' made up a separate caste and elders referred to themselves as "Grandmother." |

The chibados flag was created by user CaseySeal11 on April 23, 2021. It uses the Ndongo flag colors, but instead of a yellow sun, there's a pink sun which represent femininity. |
