The follomwing presentation made by another student attempts to show that the comb of bananas is also sigificant today like the sheaf of betel.
I wish to speak on the significance of the banana in our d5ay life. the comb of bananas too is culturally important like the sheaf of betel. the comb of bananas is favoured as a gift. It occupies a significant place in the traditional table laid along with other sweet meats like kevun (oilcakes), kokis , and milkrice. the comb of bananas too cuts across social distinctions. A poor man could offer a comb bananasfrom his crop to the richest man and no distinc tions are made.
