Description

metal,
The ramhorn-like superstructure is meant to commemorate the Lamb of God, Christ.

The rods are closely related to miraculous rods in saintly legends, but also have quite practical functions. They serve as supports during hour-long services and processions, as well as rhythm instruments that accompany dances and chants by stomping on the ground.
