Description: 
A group of Mandari men gathered in the shade of a large meeting tree which is banked-up near the base. 
One is smoking a long pipe, another (wearing a pointed cap of material) seemingly stringing beads. 
The other men in the background look on, their large spears propped up against the tree behind them.
