REMARKS BY ROY HAMILTON (1988): Made of two panels sewn together. Made of synthetic fiber commercial yarns, purchased in shops in Ende town. Men's sarongs are woven on the same back tension loom as women's sarongs (see X88.1292A-R for an example), but with the addition of a reed to create a more balanced weave. This cloth is an example of a man's sarong using the complementary warp technique to decorate some of the striped bands. This technique, called "sura dhiwi", was said to be introduced to Ndona Subdistrict in the past 20 years by the weaver of this cloth and some of her female relatives. Their inspiration came from other Lio weavers farther to the east in Wolowaru Subdistrict where this technique has been practiced for a long period of time. This type of decoration has recently become quite popular in Ndona Subdistrict. Women will go to the extra trouble of making it if they are making a cloth to be worn by male members of their family or if they wish to increase the selling price of a cloth made for market sale. Compare to X88.1278, an inexpensive man's sarong made for sale. The weaver credited with the making of this cloth did not work alone. She was responsible for supervising the warping, which she accomplished with the assistance of other members of the household. Most of the actual weaving was accomplished by an adopted teen-age daughter in the home. This process is typical of the manufacture of cloth in this region.
