- there are two kinds of mamoerin, viz.: I. mamoerin
II. loka'oeroe
The first one, the mamoerin, goes out every night. Always when the moon rises she goes to an open place, to dance facing the moon, e.g. on the beach.
The second (loka'oeroe) can separate her head from her body. The body remains on the bed, while her head rolls hither and thither, as it wishes. While rolling about it eats all kinds of dirt it happens to come across, making a clicking noise with the teeth: tock, tock, tock. Then the head returns to its usual place. Both kinds (of spirits) can harm or even kill their enemies.
