REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: "Selimut" or man's hip or shoulder wrap. Consists of two identical panels sewn together warpwise. The decorative technique is a warp-faced alternating float weave. Natural dyes: Morinda citrifolia for red and indigo for blue. Thread count: warp 68 e.p.i. (single yarn); weft 24 e.p.i. For a general discussion of Atoni weaving, see Schulte Nordholt 1971:41-46. One end of the cloth has been turned down and sewn to form a sleeve for hanging. In addition to serving as clothing, cloths on Timor traditionally played an important part in exchange cycles among allied kin groups, particularly at weddings and funerals [Gittinger 1979:21-22; for a detailed analysis of a typical Timorese alliance exchange system, see Forman 1980:152-177.
