Wau will kill a pig and give it to his rawa to strengthen the relationship between their families. When the pig is laid on the ground before the rawa, the wau will lay down beside the pig along with some of his relatives and the rawa and some of his relatives will step over the pig and the people lying on the ground and then go and lift them up.
