| Notes: | The 'ajat' (expanding drawstring bag) is made using an unusual basketry technique of starting at the top and working down to the base as opposed to the other way round. The ajat is flexible it can even be turned inside out. Refer to pg. 75 and pgs. 272-28, 5 of 'Plaited Art from the Boreno Rainforest'. | ||||
