It is worthwhile to note that a number of rituals such as nuo and meng could be performed at various levels in society, thus it is inappropriate to classify them as either court rituals or private rituals. The term nuo refers to an ancient exorcistic ritual that was performed at various levels in society and has survived in various forms until the present.
