Kumi Lizard
In New Zealand folklore, the Kumi Lizard is a purported reptile, possibly a giant monitor lizard, which allegedly once lived in New Zealand. In ''New Zealand Mysteries'', author Robyn Gosset refers to a sighting of a Kumi in 1898 by a Maori bushman. Its length was estimated at 1.5 metres. In the first edition of the book, Gosset refers to several more accounts of the lizard which are absent from the second edition. These include an account from captain James Cook, who was told by Maori in Queen Charlotte Sound that huge, arboreal lizards were present in the surrounding bushland, and that they were greatly feared, as well as a sighting from 1875 of a large lizard washed up in a flooded Hokianga river and the discovery of bones possibly from the animal that same year. More recent reports both come from 1898, one describing a large reptile seen near Gisborne, New Zealand, the other a huge creature akin to a monitor lizard which advanced toward a bushman in Mount Arowhana before ret ...

Kumi Odori
is a form of narrative traditional Ryūkyūan dance. ''Kumi odori'' or ''Kumi wudui'' means "combination dance" or "ensemble dance". Originating in the Ryūkyūan capital of Shuri, Okinawa in 1719, the original purpose of this dance was to provide amusement and diversions, which were termed ''ukwanshin'', for the Chinese diplomats who traveled to Ryūkyū. Tamagusuku Chokun, a Ryūkyūan courtier who lived from 1684 to 1734, is credited with the establishment of ''kumi odori'' as a frequently presented court demonstration. An amalgamation of several different types of East Asian dance, the ''kumi odori'' has continued to hold a place in Okinawan culture, and is now recognized by the Japanese government as an Important Intangible Cultural Property. In 2010 it was inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It remains today a prime example of native art sustained by the people of Okinawa.
