Killing of buffaloes: In the old times first the sinews of the legs were cut, then after (55) much dancing and singing, an old man killed the buffalo by thrusting a spear into its breast (not behind the shoulder). All buffaloes are killed in front of the morung at a post erected for this purpose by the oldest men of the morung, not the clan eldest of the owner. They kill the buffaloes now by cutting their throats. The head is given to that old man who had led the party which went down to buy the buffaloes. |
