This game appears to be identical with what is called main gayau in Selangor, in
which, however, a fruit or seed called buah gandu is substituted for the cocoa-
nut shell and propelled by the big toe of the player’s foot.
(4) Main sĕremban, which is played with cockle-shells by two girls at a time,
each player taking twenty cockle-shells (kulit k’rang) into her lap. Each player in
turn has to toss up one of the cockle-shells and catch, simultaneously snatching a
fresh shell from the heap. If the girl who is playing fails in either task, she loses
to her opponent.
