Such Kenyalang BIRD SCULPTURE were used for ritual purposes placed at the Sadau before placing it at the Ruai / chief varendah.

A ceremony to drive away bad spirits is seen with head or skull trophy of the longhouse taken down from their clusters. Shortly, after the skulls have been brought to the feast chiefs varendah, one man kills a chicken and smears its blood on the sacred hornbill statue BIRD SCULPTURE. Rice wine is served and the festival begins. Subsequently, this is a very similar ritual to some of my old textiles, the pua kumbu.
