[100] In Manabo a rectangular hole is dug to about five feet, then at right angles to this a chamber is cut to receive the body. This is cut off from the main grave by a stone. A similar type of grave is found in Sumatra (_Marsden_, History of Sumatra, 3d ed., p. 287, London, 1811). [101] According to this author, the Tinguian put the dried remains of their dead in subterranean tombs or galleries, six or seven yards in depth, the entrance being covered with a sort or trap door (_La Gironière_, Twenty Years in the Philippines, p. 115, London, 1853). [102] _Op. cit.,_ p. 121. [103] As distinguished from those of the dead. [104] Several times the writer has seen friends place money inside the mat, "so that the spirit may have something to spend." [105] The large spirit house, built only by well-to-do families having the hereditary right. [106] In the folk tales a very different method of disposing of the dead is indicated (Traditions of the Tinguian, this volume, No. 1, pp. 23-24, and note). [107] Among the Tuaran Dusun of British North Borneo, a fire is built near the mat on which the corpse lies, to protect the body from evil spirits, who are feared as body snatchers (_Evans_, _Jour. Ant. Inst.,_ Vol. XLVII, 1917, p. 159). [108] These consist of dishes, food, tobacco, fire-making outfit, weapons, clothing, and the like. [109] In Ilocos Sur a ceremony which lifts the ban off the relatives is held about five days after the funeral. Three months later, the blood and oil are applied to the spouse, who is then released from all restrictions. In San Juan and Lakub, a ceremony known as _Kilyas_ is held five days after the funeral. The anointing is done as described above, and then the medium drops a ball of rice under the house, saying, "Go away sickness and death, do not come to our relatives." When she has finished, drums are brought out, all the relatives dance and "forget the sorrow," and are then released from all taboos. The Layog is celebrated as in the valley towns. [110] Also known as _Waxi_ in San Juan, and _Bagoñgon_ in Sallapadin. In the latter village, as well as in Manabo and Ba-ak, this ceremony occurs a few days after the funeral. [111] This is known as _Apapáyag_ or _Inapapayag_ (p. 309). [112] The foregoing ceremonies follow the death of any adult, male or female, but not of newborn children. If the first-born dies in infancy, it is buried in the middle of the night when no one can see the corpse, otherwise other babies will die. The parents don old garments, and are barred from leaving the town or engaging in pastimes, until the ten-day period has passed. No fire is built at the grave, nor are offerings placed over it. When some one else is holding a _Layog_, the parents may join them "to relieve their sorrow and show respect for the dead." [113] A folk-tale recorded in this town gives quite a different idea of the abode of the spirits (Traditions of the Tinguian, this volume, No. 1, p. 185; also p. 28, note 2).
