Angganeta Menufaur, a woman of Insumbabi near Supiori, was the prophetess around whom the great Koreri movement of 1939-1943 crystallised. Reported to have been healed and visited by Manseren Manggundi and the Morning Star, she was revered as the 'mother of Koreri,' understood to renew the returning female principle of the myth, and drew thousands to the wor song-feasts that proclaimed the imminent age of abundance and the raising of the dead. She was seized and killed during the wartime suppression of the movement. A historical figure of the twentieth century, she became fully woven into the living mythology of the Koreri hope.
