yardli-wiri, s
- English Translation: sticks over a grave
- Note1 : After the body is put in the grave and a little earth thrown on it; the natives place a number of sticks across its mouth; over which they spread grass or bushes to prevent the remaining earth from falling down; so that an empty space of about three feet in depth is left between the body and the top earth.
