The ampasit of the Kankanay is entirely different from the ceremony of the same name celebrated by the Nabaloi. The Kankanay ampasit corresponds in purpose to the Nabaloi basil. There is no similarity, however, in the spoken rituals of these two ceremonies. DAYAU The dayau is celebrated in all Benguet Kankanay towns to cure sores. A chicken and a jar of tapuy are necessary for sacrifice. The mambunong holds the chicken in one hand, a cup of tapuy in the other, and relates a version of the story recorded under the bilig (p. 377); but he adds that after the quarrel both the Wind and the Lightning became covered with sores, and that in compliance with the advice of Lumawig the dayau was celebrated in order that a cure might be effected. After the ceremony the patient bathes while saying: I am bathing for dayau. May my sores be cured. May I be like you, Water, free of sores. The ceremony is very similar to the diau kasib of the Nabaloi. It is celebrated in Mancayan, but I do not know whether or not it is celebrated in any other Lepanto towns. TAMO The tamo is held in Buguias to cure insanity. It is also made in some of the villages of Mancayan, but I do not know whether it is celebrated in other Kankanay towns. The mambunong holds the chicken in his hand and prays, but I can not state the nature of the prayer. After the prayer one man dances with a spear in his hand. The dance, which is similar to that of the palis, is repeated three times. Between dances the people sing, but no one seems to be able to explain the meaning of the song. The majority of the words used in both the song and the prayer are probably obsolete. The ceremony is similar in some respects to the tamo of the Nabaloi. PASANG The pasang is celebrated to cause children to be born. The mambunong holds a chicken in each hand and squats between two baskets of blankets, while relating the following story: Wada, kano, Bintauan un Apinan. Sin Agida. Adida, kanon, mananak ya mo manawasda pay, kano, sumakisakit sin agusda asauwada. Amuida ut, kanominda manpaanap. Datgnunda, kano, san usay bato ay bui; binmali san usay dakdakui ya ando ay ipugau ay maata di kadumna. Asi ibaganda Bintauan un Apinan ay mananap mo sinoi inmat un asauwada. Asina kanon un, "Amui kayo un boan si agou tan siay mangamo si anap." Ungayanan amuida Bintauan un Apinan. Datunga pay, kano, san nantotomtoman di lota ya ud tagui. Wada san dadakui ay buui. Binmali ut, kano, abu san usay ipugau ay mandada di matana mayatag kaduna. "Sinoi gapona si inmalianyo?" "Inkami manpaanap tan mo manowas san asauwami ya mansakit ya adikami mananak." "Adi pay, amok di anap, ut amui kayo unda agou un Boan tan daeda dimangamo si anap."
