The procedure is as follows: Late in the afternoon, all the necessary articles are brought to the house, then the mediums dance for a time to the music of the _tongátong_. _Basi_ is served to the guests, and for an hour or more the spirits are summoned. Next morning the _kalangan_ is built, and two pigs are sacrificed beside it. Their blood mixed with oil is offered to the spirits, and many acts, such as distributing the rice into ten dishes and then replacing it in the original container, the churning of sticks in the nose of a slaughtered animal and the like, are performed. Spirits are summoned in the afternoon, and in the evening _da-eng_ is danced. On the third day new offerings are placed on the spirit shield and hanger; offerings are made at the new structure, numerous spirits appear, talk to and amuse the people, and finally _da-eng_ is danced until late evening. Following the ceremony, all members of the family are barred from work for about one month. They may not eat the meat of the wild carabao, wild hog, beef, eels, nor may they use peppers in their food. Wild fowl are barred for a period of one year. _Kalangan_ is much more widespread than either _Tangpap_ or the _Sayang_ ceremony, and this spirit structure is often found in villages, where the other great ceremonies are lacking. _Sayang_.--The greatest of all the ceremonies is the _Sayang_, the ability to celebrate which proclaims the family as one of wealth and importance. In most cases the right is hereditary, but, as already indicated, a person may gain the privilege by giving, in order, and through a term of years, all the minor ceremonies. In such circumstances _Sayang_ follows _Kalangan_ after a lapse of from four to eight years. Otherwise the ceremony will be held about once in seven years, or when the spirit structure known as _balaua_ is in need of repairs. Originally this appears to have been a seventeen-day ceremony, as it still is in Manabo, Patok, Lagangilang, and neighboring villages, but in San Juan, Lagayan, Danglas, and some other settlements it now lasts only five or seven days. However, even in those towns where it occupies full time, the first twelve days are preliminary in nature. On the first day, the mediums go to the family dwelling and take great pains to see that all forbidden articles are removed, for wild ginger, peppers, shrimps, carabao flesh, and wild pork are tabooed, both during the ceremony and for the month following. The next duty is to construct a woven bamboo frame known as _talapitap_ on which the spirits are fed, and to prepare two sticks known as _dakidak_, one being a thin slender bamboo called _bolo_, the other a reed. These are split at one end, so they will rattle when struck on the ground, and thus call the attention of the spirit for whom food is placed on the rack.
