Description: There are three varieties of this plant: ~ hyíar ‘chicken cockscomb’, ~ càay and ~ kláa sɔ́ ‘dog balls cocks-comb’. The ~ hyíar, which can have red or yellow flowers, belongs to the agricultural tradition. When people are sowing rice, they sow this plant around the field-houses for use in the ceremony for finishing off the agricultural year (>nɨ̀m) after the rice harvest, since they have the power to keep the spirits of waste (róoy yàap) away. If people use them before the rice harvest, they break a taboo and will be punished for this by the ancestor spirits. The ~ càay is similar to ~ hyíar and is used in the same way. | ||
Note: "Id" refers to the original ID of the dried plant specimen | ||
