•What shape are tables/eating areas (round, oblong, square, rectangular, etc.)? Where is the "place of honor" for a guest? Where do important members of the household sit/recline/whatever?
Tables are rectangular shaped, with the place of honor being the left end of the table. On nights when the family has no guests, others are discouraged from sitting there, under the assumption the High Goddess is the guest. As a result, the head of the household sits at the place next to the end of the left side of the table.
