- term used to describe the activities of members of a banjar when they come to thee home of a family that is a member of the bajar and where a person has died. Among other things make a peti and balibit (belibit) (coffin and surrounding fence) for the body of a person who has just died by chopping bamboo culms to the proper length and splitting them as necessary. The term matetakan is onomatopoeic, imitating the sound of the chopping.
