-The Patharias place a stone on the mouth of the bellows to fix them in the ground for smelting, while the Khuntias use a peg. The two subcastes do not even take water from one another. Their exogamous sections have generally the same names as those of the Gonds, as Sonwani, Dhurua, Tekam, Markam, Uika, Purtai, Marai, and others.

A person of the Sonwani sept is always chosen to perform the ceremony of purification and readmis- sion into caste of persons temporarily excommunicated.

 His duty often consists in pouring on such a person a little water in which gold has been placed to make it holy, and hence the name is considered to mean Sonapani or gold- water. The Agarias do not know the meanings of their section names and therefore have no totemistic observances.
