Formal North American Dance for Prestige

Americans play a interesting form of music and dance where a they vie over a round drum which they beat into the ground on a wooden surface to make noise that pleases the crowd.   The tribes chosen warriors dressed in the tribal colors take turns dancing while keeping the drum away from one another while attempting keeping the up the beat on the drum.    A musical number is finished when the drum is thrust with a display of marksmanship or acrobatics through a elevated ring belonging to the opposing tribe. The watching tribesmen clap and cheer for their chosen warriors.    The tribe to play the most successful musical numbers is declared victor and much prestige is won.
