Summary
Spectators watch as competitors play Neza Bazi or tent-pegging, which is a traditional Afghan game where cavalrymen on horseback attempt to remove a small wooden tent-peg from the ground using a lance or sword during Nowruz, the Iranian/Perusian New Year in Paktika province, Afghanistan, March 21, 2013 . Neza Bazi’s origins date back to the 4th century B.C. and were once used to develop cavaliers' prowess with the sword and lance from horseback. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Mark A Moore II/Released)
