S1: Now let’s see. There seem to be several people sitting down and some others looking like servants coming to bring the meal to them.
S2: Yes. Perhaps there is a party, and isn’t it interesting that all the people sitting down are women? I wonder what they’re eating.
S1: Well, there’s fish and meat and some fruit and vegetables.
S2: It seems that the servants bring the food while the guests sit on comfortable chairs, but there don’t seem to be any tables.S1: Do you think that’s comfortable? Well, at least their clothes are cool – nice long floating dresses with large decorated collars.
S2: But not everyone is wearing that. Look! The dancers and the servants are wearing much less.
S1: So they are. They seem to be clean though. There is a servant bringing a cloth to wash their hands. And one of the women has a strange pot on her head.S2: Yes, it is. Do you see the dancers? It is reasonable to assume that they are entertaining people.
S1: Yes, but the women are not looking at them.
S2: Yes, another strange thing is that all the guests and the dancers are women but the servants are men.
