A close photo of a gold ceremonial staff topped with a leaf-shaped gold finial engraved with a horizontal lingam-like motif, its base wrapped in red cloth and smeared with red and yellow ritual paste. Behind it, blurred gold oil lamps stand against a gold-carved temple pillar. A person in orange robes is partly visible at the left edge, and red fabric hangs at the right. No faces are visible, and no one can be identified as a person.2010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12Photo 11716657Photo 11717089November 01 20112011-11-01A close photograph of a gold ceremonial staff with a pointed, bulbous finial carved with a horizontal band and a red cabochon stone, held in a bare hand.
