The dokan gurun ("save, set aside, wrap") rite is done to store the seed in the attic. This seed is the body of a sacrificed woman. On this occasion, the myth of the origin of rice is recited all night long, while dancing in front of the koké temple, between the Maran clan house and the temple. See video, see publications.
