What does kundango mean?

1 published definition

kundango

A long wooden pestle, approximately five feet tall, used by Mandinka women in West Africa to grind grain in a wooden mortar. In the Dominican Republic, this term evolved into a derogatory slur for a gay man, drawing a phallic comparison to the wooden pole.

The women ground the coffee in the wooden mortar using the kundango in a rhythmic way.
