Qua'an Pan

In the course of Daffiar’s migration, he eventually settled atop a hill in present day Koffiar.

His offspring decided to continue the migration in search of arable lands on the plains below the hill.

In the course of the migration, one of the Daffier’s children got tired at a certain location and declared "Dum mak", which means, "the journey is enough" in the local dialect.

Daffiar also had a pair of twins who continued migrating and eventually settled in present day Namu.
