The big wooden drum is the divine object worshipped by the Jinos. It is kept in the Zhuoba's be home, and allowed to beaten only on the New Year. Legend has it that in the remote past there was only one pair of virtuous brother and sister who survived the flood. They were guided by the immortal and survived the disaster by hiding themselves in the drum. They finally became the ancestors of the Jinos. While beating the wooden drum, men hold the drum and women beat it. All villagers dance around the drum. (Ma Jinghua, Jiang Wenran/Eastday)
