B&W photographic print. 'Tobu, soul images (baskets with [ ? ] chests). Konyak. Each clan builds a shelter where effigies of their deceased are placed. This shelter is often located beside a path leading to the fields, not necessarily near the actual grave. Some at least of the images appear to be made of basketry, and boar's tusks and certain items of clothing can be discerned. Cane hoops hang from the tree on the right.' |
