On the "Mani pile" are placed slates or stones engraved with Mani scriptures such as the "Six-Character Mantra" and the "Six-Character Secret Mantra" of Bonism, as well as some feather arrows and oysters, antelopes, and yaks. The horns or the entire horned skull. In Tibetan areas, wooden sticks and branches are inserted into square or conical "mani piles" of different sizes built up of large and small stones, and ropes are used to lead them to a nearby tree or cliff. The branches and ropes are hung with Colorful wind horse prayer flags and auspicious and evil-dispelling ornaments such as khatas, colored threads, and white wool were displayed.
