At a Baiga funeral the mourners take one white and one black fowl to a stream and kill and eat them there, setting aside a portion for the dead man.

The Gonds also take their food and drink liquor at the grave.

The Lohars think that the spirit of the dead man returns to join in the funeral feast.

Among the Telugu Koshtis the funeral party go to the grave on the fifth day, and after the priest has worshipped the image of Vishnu on the grave, the whole party take their food there.

After a Panka funeral the mourners bathe and then break a cocoanut over the grave and distribute it among themselves.
