REMARKS BY ROY HAMILTON (1988): Constructed of three panels sewn together by hand. Commercial cotton yarn; chemical dyes. Purchased from its owners in Ende town. The owners are Lio by ethnic identity and the family originated in Nggela village in Wolowaru Subdistrict. Many Lio people have settled in Ende town because it is the capital and main settlement of the district which includes both the Ende and Lio populations. This pattern is characteristic of Nggela village, where it goes by the name "lawo wenda". The pattern however is a derivation from the Ende elephant motif style known as "zawo nggaja tendo", which consists of a field of elephant, horse and diamond motifs. In Nggela the pattern has undergone minor reorganization to create a distinctive new style. Nggela weavers do not identify the motifs in the same way as Ende weavers, no longer recognizing the identity of the elephant shape. Instead they refer to the elephant shape as "jara" (=horse) and identify the diamond shape as "nggaja" (=elephant). Compare to X88.1292A, which is the Ende style version of the elephant and horse pattern.
