REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Collected during the decade prior to World War II. Synthetic dyes; cotton thread. Entire sarong is banded with simple weft ikat stripes. The "kepala" (Malay="head") or decorative center band is compound ikat (ikat of both warp and weft). Identified as "kain Samarinda" by collector. Worn as sarongs by the Bugis and Makassarese peoples of South Sulawesi. Katharane Mershon related to Pat Altman that the Mershon's Balinese household staff requested this type of sarong as gifts when the Mershons went to South Sulawesi. However, these cloths proved unacceptable because the dyes were not fast. The term "kain Samarinda" here refers to sarongs from the late colonial era, commercially produced on floor looms. This term is normally applied to silk sarongs. The name derives from the fact that they were made in Sulawesi primarily for export to Bugis emigrant colonies located near the town of Samarinda in the east coast of Borneo [Crystal 1979:54]. In Samarinda, women of Bugis descent established a hand-weaving industry and continue to produce similar sarongs called "kain Samarinda" today.
