Updating the shroud
We all have strange rituals surrounding the dead. In Madagascar they unearth the dead every ten years or so, put a new shroud on the body and maybe have a party (including dancing with the corpse) before re-burying the body. This practice is very expensive but quite popular. I guess it makes sense in a country where ancestor worship is common.
