How did the Lahu people bury the dead?

The Lahu people's mourning activities for the dead are generally three days, but this is only a rule for the elderly dead. Ordinary people are buried on the day they die. If they die in the afternoon and evening, they can stay at home for one day and be buried the next day. At the funeral of the dead, Moba (a wizard) will guide the dead, and the coffin will be carried by several strong men. The cemetery of Lahu nationality was chosen by throwing eggs. Before the deceased is carried to the cemetery, the family or relatives of the deceased will find a cemetery for the deceased with an egg.

When looking for the cemetery, throw the eggs behind you. If the egg is broken, which proves that the deceased likes the place, everyone will bury the deceased there. If the egg is not broken, it proves that the deceased doesn't like this place, and he will throw the egg again until it is broken.
