Description:
|
On a raised platform, seven male figures form a procession. The smaller leader holding two fans is followed by four pallbearers and the deceased in a feathered coffin. Two adults form the rear guard. The six larger figures have developed male genitalia. The smaller leader has none and could be an adolescent male, while six of the large figures are adult males.
