39. 4 (Ref. 37) hexagonal loops of spins organize into weakly interacting antiferromagnetic clusters. The fluctuation of the directors of the hexagons governs the low-temperature dynamics. This state is termed a "protectorate" as it appears to be a stable state of matter in a strongly correlated system (Ref. 41).
