The dance is based on a folktale about a boy called Mambo who ran away from his village. The villagers were going through the rivers and the jungle to search for him. Mambo's mother who joined the search passed away before she could find Mambo. The villagers mourned for her death. Then, they continued the search. Eventually they found Mambo, and the villagers had a big celebration.
