This washing is done by several elderly persons of the respective sex and these wrap it up with a sanda (white calico), either one or several according to the dignity, age and richness of the dead. But sanda instead of mikuswa (banana-leaves) was introduced lately because the people were not using clothes but mayombwe, i.e. stringy material (56a). The sanda comes next to the body whilst the mat will be spread inside the grave and another covers the outer of the mutufwi (57).
