Is it true that Somalis are buried under their mothers name?

Dooyo

Inaba Caadi Maaha
I don’t understand how you would be buried under with a name, but I have heard that apparently in akhiro, people will use their mother female abtiirsi (or hooyotiirsi, if ‘ab’ comes from ‘aabo’ lol) instead of their father’s to identify themselves. I think it’s just a tale, though,

Not many people can trace back the female sides of their family, it’s rather sad that mothers are forgotten with time.
