Type of title	translation
Original caption	Versammlungs- u. Trinkhaus d. Bali.
Description	Annotation translation: "The drinking house in the chief's compound in Bali. A beautiful house of this kind stands in every big chief's compound. The chief and the notable men of the town meet there to arbitrate when their subordinates have disputes and in general to discuss the welfare and problems of the community. The figures are carved, and often painted. They symbolise important persons or events [in the history] of the town."; Annotation: "Das Trinkhaus im Häuptlingsgehöft i. Bali. In jedem grösseren Häuptlingsgehöft steht ein solch schönes Haus. Da kommt der Häuptling mit den angesehenen Männern der Stadt zusammen, um Streitigkeiten der Untertanen zu schlichten & über Wohl & Weh der Stadt zu reden. Die geschnitzten & oft noch bemalten Figuren, die die Front des Häuptlingshauses zieren, stellen oft wichtige Persönlichkeiten & Begebenheiten der Stadt dar."; Note translation: To judge by their style the carved posts are from Bamileke.
