False Teeth and Poisonous Snakes

I'm not sure if the man in the first picture actually sold any on these dentures or whether he was just putting on a show for tourists, but the dentures were real as were the pile of rotten bleached teeth. The snakes and snakes charmers were for real and I can't figure out why the snakes just stay peacefully coiled on the cement in the market square. This was the start of our venture into the narrow streets of the souk or marketplace. Thankgoodness we had a local guide as we would have been lost in the maze.
