This tribe's dances included negritos, jicure and carnival dances. (I don't know what those first two words mean.) They were accompanied on these wooden flutes , guitar, mandolin and drum. Here they danced around a pole with a ribbon attached the their instruments and to the top of the pole. They weaved in and out among each other eventually stopped, assessed the twist of the ribbons and then danced in reverse and untwisted the ribbons.
