A child's cradle, made of a blanket suspended hammock-like between the

wall and a beam support, will probably be found. A few boxes and jars,

usually of Chinese make, and always a copper gong or two are regular

furnishings, while to these can be added a miscellany of clothing,

looms, spears, shields, meat blocks, spoons (Fig. 11), and the like.

Akin to furniture, since they are found in every house, are little

basket-like receptacles made by splitting one end of a bamboo pole into

several vertical strips and then weaving in other shorter horizontal

strips (Fig. 12). These are attached to walls and supporting poles, and

in them offerings are made to the various spirits.
