Marka — Formal presentation pose — turn away, kneel (one knee up, one down), hold hair up to expose neck mark, eyes to floor.
Notes
The formal presentation pose: turn away, kneel with one knee up and one down, hold the hair up to expose the Koeler at the nape. Used at a claiming, at a sale, and when a household is asked to present a slave to a guest. Not done for every guest who walks in, which would take all evening and interest nobody.
