Tradhisi penguburan

Dhengkul ditekuk banjur dijiret, nganggo driji tangan lan jempol tangan tengen, pucuk sing pungkasan sadurunge dibakar, diikat ing ligatur. Tujuan ngobong kuku lan dadi budak yaiku supaya wong sing mati ora bakal metu saka kuburane, lan nalika bali, bisa nggunakake tombak. Lemah sing kebanjiran sing digali metu kanggo ngorek papan pemakamane ora kena digunakake kanggo ngisi kuburan, sing ditutupi karo kulit kayu, lan kayu. Banjur diobong, barang-barang kadonyane, kalebu tumbak sing rusak, banjur glethakake ing sacedhake, lan wit-witan dicatu nganggo cincin kanggo menehi tandha situs kasebut.

Mitologi

Akeh informasi babagan mitologi Koreng ditulis ing taun 1880an dening Edith Hassell, garwane Albert Young Hassell. Naskah kasebut diabaikan nganti dikirimake dening antropolog Amerika Amerika Daniel Sutherland Davidson ing taun 1930. Davidson nyunting materi jurnal Inggris Folklore luwih saka 1934-1935, lan iki tetep dadi sumber penting kanggo rekonstruksi tradhisi Koreng.
