The water which we had brought with us would not now be wasted but, by Tahari custom, emptied into the cistern of the inn. - (Tribesmen of Gor, Chapter 11, Sentence #385)

Each man carried his own saddle. Saddles are prized on the Tahari and each man cares for his own, and sees to its safety. Among nomads they are brought into the tent each night, and placed on the right side of the tent, at the back. The water which we had brought with us would not now be wasted but, by Tahari custom, emptied into the cistern of the inn. In this fashion the water is still used, and, to some extent, it saves the inn boys from carrying as much water as they might otherwise do, from the wells of the oasis, to the inn's cistern. In leaving an oasis, of course, similarly, as a courtesy to the inn, and its hospitality, the bags are commonly filled not at the cistern, but at the public well. Hassan then, carrying his saddle and other belongings, went into the inn. - (Tribesmen of Gor)
