Later the prepared rice and non-veg food on this occassions are kept in a kukke (basket) and then taken to Almachan\u1e0da family’s thootengala (cremation ground) which is close to 1.5 kms away from the iyne-mane.<\/p>\n

Anji koot moorthy theray:<\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n

This is held once in 5 years at the Almachan\u1e0da aiyne-mane where the bhootha-kolas of 5 super-natural spirits (thus the name “Anji”) namely Korathi, Guliga, Nucchitte, Yetthakaara and Choundi is observed in order whose spirits are acquired by Aramane Paaleyas from Kakkabbe\/Nelji zone.
