Sing Sadom Enech - The Dance of the Day Horse

Sing Sadom don (dance) is a ritual performance that was on the verge of extinction, until recently. It has been revived in a few Santal villages in West Bengal and Jharkhand. It is specially performed by Santal men at weddings. The documentation shows the crafting of the Sing Sadom (Day Horse) and the performance by the members of the Sagun Thili Gounta group from Bhurkundabari, Neturia, Purulia.
