Cargo cults originated in Melanesia at about eighty-three years ago during World War II. ... These cults believed that by imitating what the soldiers, sailors, and airmen did and used to air-drop cargo goods onto their islands, more goods would eventually appear.
The purpose of cargo cults was to basically worship cargo, repeating rituals that they believed would communicate with these “godly” airplanes to bring them back cargo full of goods from the heavens during the war. Due to this new obsession, they turned back from a few of their old religious ways that existed before the war, though their beliefs of the special cargo deliveries existed long before the appearance of the Western troops.
