Description: The king and queen sit on wooden chairs, elevated above the ground on a platform of logs. Groups of men sit on benches set perpendicular to the left and right sides of the platform. A group of women dance in a circle, inside the three-sided rectangle formed by the platform and benches. Some of the women hold hands as they dance. They wear ropes tied around their waists, from which discs hang.
