Species Cultural Practices and Ceremonial Dining RitualsDescription
A planetary cultural group cited for a distinctive communal dining ritual in which two large stones are continuously struck during a meal; participants are obliged to eat until the stones are broken. In the current material they appear only as an ethnographic comparator invoked by Commander Data to contextualize Betazoid table customs. No internal institutions, hierarchy, political activity, or broader social structure are shown; their role in the scene is purely cultural — a behavioral norm that reveals strict ceremonial expectations around shared meals.
