Straw dragon -- memorial flag -- filial lantern -- auspicious lantern -- cage for releasing animals -- memorial banner -- incense pavilion -- statue pavilion -- soul sedan -- paper bridge -- orchestra -- coffin -- surviving family members -- monks and Taoist priests -- golden boys and jade girls -- relatives and friends attending the funeral.
Of course, customs vary from place to place, and the processions and forms of funerals also vary. The ceremonies of wealthy families are grand and elaborate, with complete funerary objects, while funerals of poor families may be much simpler and less elaborate. There are several etiquettes during the traditional funeral procession. Such as throwing paper money, setting up tea tables and offering sacrifices on the roadside.
Throwing paper money refers to scattering paper money made of white paper and shaped like copper coins. It is usually done by a special person in front of the filial son. After the coffin is lifted, paper money is scattered when there are roadside sacrifices, when passing crossroads, riversides, bridges, temples, city gates, and when the body is buried.
Tea tables and roadside memorial tents are mostly set up by the bereaved family’s relatives and friends to express their condolences and sympathy to the bereaved family.
The tea table is for filial sons and their relatives and friends to drink water, and the filial sons should kneel down and kowtow to express their gratitude.
Roadside sacrifice refers to setting up an offering table or sacrificial shed on the road that the funeral procession passes by to commemorate the deceased. When there is a roadside sacrifice, the funeral procession usually stops the coffin to hold the sacrifice and express gratitude. After the sacrifice, the coffin is lifted and the procession continues on its way.
