Carrying nets are laid out in a long row. On them, oblong decorated stones, the je stones, are laid. Over the nets and stones, jetak bands (bands with kauri shells) are laid. These are then inspected and redistributed. In Baliem jetak bands are "the goods distributed at weddings, memorials, pig festivals and so on, along with je stones, pigs and carrying nets" (Schneckenreich and Federsschön. Volkenkundemuseum der Archiv- und Museumstiftung Wuppertal, Museumstexte Nr. 5, page 35). The gift is assembled and examined. There is an assesment of whether the gift is large enough and good enough to serve its aim, such as a dowry or compensation for the death of a member of another tribe. Nets, je stones and jetak bands have capital value in Baliem.
