Mbaru means home. Flores always separates men and women room, especially when carrying out traditional procession. This is done to maintain chastity. Mbaru Wina, which is home to women, is used to perform rituals such as requests for a partner, offspring and self-purification.
Meanwhile, Mbaru Rona, which is a man’s house, is used for traditional processions as heir to the throne, rank as husband and father, including a place to store heirlooms.
The horn symbol is always always employed to convey bravery.
