REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Consists of two panels sewn together. Handspun cotton with natural dyes. The following information is from Gittinger 1979:206: "These textiles [Torajan ikats] were woven in the Rongkong and Karataun valleys, and traded to other Toraja groups for various uses. By their makers they were used as funeral shrouds, but elsewhere they are used as clothing or displayed as wall hangings at important funeral feasts". A similar cloth is illustrated in Kahn Majlis 1984:Fig.745, identified as "pore lonjong". The provenience of the illustrated cloth is not specified and it is not entirely clear from which of the ikat producing regions X79.279 comes. Long, narrow ikats in black, rust and white are said to come from Rokong [Crystal 1979:60]. Wide multiple-panel cloths with striped lateral sections are identified as coming from Galumpang, which is the administrative center of the Karataun district [Kahlenberg 1977:56]. X79.279 seems to share characteristics of both these styles.
