Restoration.
Klemantanen women dressed for Harvest festival.
"MERRY-MAKING AT HARVEST HOME: KLEMANTAN WOMEN DRESSED AS MEN". Boisterous fun attends the completion of the rice harvest in Borneo, and the harvest festival is the annual carnival, at which dancing is most practised. After a feast on rice and pork, solo and group dancing is indulged in, both sexes taking part, and the women often dressing up as men for the occasion. After an exceptionally good harvest the rejoicing may last two days.
Borneo = Kalimantan.
