The women members of the rain priesthoods have to offer food every day to the fetiches of these sacerdotal groupsto stones carved and uncarved, and to cotton-wrapped lengths of cane filled with "the seeds the people live by." For the seed fetiches to be in any way disturbed in the houses to which they are attached, involves great danger to the people, and on a woman in the house, the woman member of the priesthood, falls the responsibility of guardianship or shelter.
