Description

Photographer's note: The women wear full knee-length string skirts, beaten-bark capes, strings of Job's Tear beads crossing their chests, cowrie-shell necklaces and bamboo nasal septum ornaments. This photograph was taken in Kuba/ Guba (Kubwai?) a short distance south of the Nali River vine bridge crossing (universal grid reference 54M XU45713).
