These festivals often entailed actions beyond simple offerings to the gods, such as reenactments of particular myths or the symbolic destruction of the forces of disorder.
Perayaan-perayaan ini biasanya berupa kegiatan selain persembahan biasa kepada para dewa, seperti peragaan kembali mitos-mitos tertentu atau penghancuran kekuatan-kekuatan jahat secara simbolis..
