REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: The term "sarong", used in this sense, denotes a particular size and style of batik cloth (see Elliott 1984:32). One feature of this style of cloth is the "kepala" (= "head"), or vertical decorative band with a contrasting motif to the "badan" (="body") of the sarong. This sarong is still sewn into its tubular form as it would have been worn. The dyes used are indigo and "soga" brown. The color scheme and the motifs are characteristic of Central Javanese batik. In present day Java, tubular sarongs are prefered by men while women prefer flat "kain" worn in wrap-around fashion; however, the tubular form by no means precludes usage by a woman. The motifs, on the other hand, are more typical of a woman's sarong; only in the Jogjakarta area do men still wear floral batik sarongs.
