A group of eight men

The elongated legs of these eight figures contrast with the modest stature of their arms. Their headbands are white, ochre-red, or ochre-yellow, while their skirts are white, ochre-red, or ochre-yellow. They are holding a shallow bowl in front of them, an item that is difficult to see in the case of the closest group, whose arms appear to be twisted.
