Four attendants stand between the warrior chief and the two warriors. Their small size indicated their low status. The attendant just above the warrior chief's right arm (the first one on the left above) carries a fan to cool the chief. The attendant above the chief's left arm (the second from the left above) carries a side-blown trumpet. Its deep piercing sound announces the chief's arrival. The attendant standing beside the warrior chief's left leg (the third from the left above) carries an unidentified clapperlike object. And finally, the attendant standing beside the chief's right leg (the fourth from the left above) is holding a box in the form of an antelope or cowhead. The box was usually used to bring gifts of kola nuts to the Oba.
