	Takam Takam ( Azerbaijani: تکم for "my billy goat") is the name of the king of goats, a male goat, in the folklore of Azarbaijan, Iran. ''Takam's'' effigies are made out of wood and ornamented with coloured glass beads and cock's tail feathers. A pole affixed to a ''Takam'' is passed through a hole in a plank which is held horizontally, from below which the ''Takam'' is moved as though it is dancing on the surface of the plank. While doing so, the person playing the ''Takam'', who is referred to as ''Takam-Chi'' (تکم چی), or ''Takam Gardān'' (meaning, the one who turns around the ''Takam''), chants special poetry which in Azari is called '' Sāyā'' (سایا). The tradition of playing the ''Takam'' is millennia old and invariably in all ''Sāyā''s reference is made to natural landscapes,Photographs showing some of Azarbaijan's beautiful landscapes: [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
