I think this looks like the thing that the Earth people use to play the game they call tennis but we couldn't find a ball to go with it... |

No, it's not for that. The crown says it's called a Kora and it comes from The Gambia. It is used by the Mande people to play what the Earth people call music. It has 21 strings on it and the people who play these use them to keep the music and history of their people alive. |
