A week or so ago I had the great privilege of reading DON'T SLEEP THERE ARE SNAKES by Daniel Everett. Daniel Everett, a young missionary, goes to live with a small remote tribe of Piraha Indians in the Amazonian jungle. He is there to learn their language in order to translate the New Testament.
They don't sleep much at one time. Rarely have I heard the village completely quiet at night or noticed someone sleeping for several hours straight.

Everett is the Chair of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures at Illinois State University.From the Hardcover edition. The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes is essentially a spinoff of The Hunger Games and was released in May 2020. The novel focuses on the time, roughly 65 years before the original series, when the future President Snow is a teenager. Here, Coriolanus Snow is 18 years old and is preparing to be a mentor for the Hunger Games.
Instead of bidding someone goodnight, they say, "Don't sleep, there are snakes" — a gentle reminder that wild beasts lurk in the nearby jungle ready to slither, scurry or pounce at the first hint of an unsuspecting, defenseless snore. "Goodnight," is an empty phrase, argues Everett. At least the Pirahã saying serves a purpose.
