Omata is hani language, which means offering sacrifices to the king of the valley. This is a folk festival of Hani nationality in Xiding, Menghai, Yunnan. From the maturity of millet to the completion of harvest, the local Hani people hold five ceremonies to worship the Valley King every year to greet the arrival of a bumper agricultural harvest and thank their ancestors and the Valley King for their kindness.
During my five visits to Ou Ma Tower, the first time was when Xiaomi was basically mature. Every Hani family chooses an auspicious day, picks three ears of rice and hangs them on the altar at home. Parents recite sacrificial words and thank their ancestors and the Valley King for their blessing.
The second time was before harvest, when a rice with two branches and two ears was found, it was regarded as the king of the valley. Parents killed a chicken in Wangqian Valley, cooked it on the ground, lifted it to the top of the mountain three times in front of the valley of Xinmeile Co., Ltd., and then chopped the king of the valley home to make an altar.
After the third harvest, if the accumulated grain piles collapse, it will offend the Valley King. Before erecting the grain pile, parents will knock a chicken to death, throw some chicken feathers around the grain pile, tie the grain pile to the upper part of the grain seedling and put the eggs under the grain seedling. Sacrifice will tie up the grain in Gulingchi, cut it down with one knife, put the ears in bags and take back the eggs. The ears in Gulingchi will hang in the barn.
The fourth time, the tower bared its teeth and called Gu's soul back to the warehouse. During the sacrifice, everyone present kept quiet, and no one could speak, so as to call Gu Ling back to the warehouse smoothly. The fifth time, before the rice is put into storage, parents should put the sacrifices in the warehouse first, then put some new grains in the reeds, cover them with clothes and repeat for three times. Every time, they will catch a new grain and scatter it in the warehouse. After the above ceremony, people began to put new grains into storage or eat them.
