I chose to draw this because it shows how people are ranked in their communities. The fact that everybody on the entire block, shows the unity and selflessness everybody in the community has. When they describe supper time, they are sure to mention where everybody sits. The styward and his wife sit in the middle of the table together and if there is a priest, he sits across from them. Then on either side of them, sits four younger children and next to them, are four older people. These seating arrangements come about because they believe that by the younger children sitting next to the older people, they would want to impress them and show them that they are mature, so they are always on their best behavior at the table.(Pg 63)
