Wood is used to carve various items for household use as well as for ceremonial uses.
Twenee-Drum Wood is also used to carve drums and other household items, but these will not be discussed in this project. At these levels of political organization, the stool, the staffs and umbrella tops are manipulated to promote group identity and cohesion, national integration, and to express legitimacy of authority. At the personal level, dolls and combs are used to express beauty, love and fertility. A man may carve and give a wooden comb to a woman to express his love for her. In the king's court, for example, the linguist will carry the poma to express profound mesages relating to justice, peace, conflict resolution, and arbitration.
