A woman and a girl standing at the entrance of an Agintawa house. This picture shows the manner in which the women carry their net bags with a band passing across the head. The girl is wearing a necklace made of seeds, cuscus tails and a large piece of shell. The woman is wearing a small net bag about her neck. The handle of the bag is decorated with dried cuscus feet, the fingers of which are clutched around the handle. She wears the typical working skirt made of Pandanus leaf. |
