REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Consists of two panels of cloth sewn together warpwise. Handspun(?) and commercial(?) cotton thread. Natural(?) dyes, probably Morinda citrifolia for red and indigo for blue. This cloth is identified by Kent Watters in the original accession material as: "a good example of the shawls used to wrap the bodies of the dead." The two panels differ slightly in width to allow an uneven number of motif stripes in the pattern; this is a characteristic feature of Savunese "selimut" [Gittinger 1979:187]. This cloth seems to be intermediate in size between a man's "selimut", which is typically composed of two broader panels, and a "selendang", which is typically composed of only one panel. See Gittinger 1979:fig.146 for a photo of a "selimut" with a similar motif configuration. See Majlis 1984:fig.440 for a "selendang" with a similar motif configuation. Color and design features of Savunese textiles identify the moiety and subgroup of the wearer; this cloth probably represents the "Hubi Iki" (="lesser blossom") moiety [Gittinger 1979:187 and Fox 1977:99].
