| Summary: |
This group of Apatanis standing on a porch wears traditional clothes and ornaments : the older woman in front greets the outsider with the camera by raising her hands, in imitation of Indian practice : this front porch combined with the one in the back equals the interior space of an Apatani house and provides additional work and space in good weather : In the background, we can see a few of the tall poles 15-20 metres high, that are erected during the Myoko festival celebrated in March. |
