- It is thought that the Minangkabau came to Indonesia many centuries ago from mainland Southeast Asia. The geometric and stylized floral designs of their traditional textiles certainly reflect the textile arts of the Malaysian, Khmer, and Tai peoples.
- Minangkabau weavers devoted their skill and time to producing ceremonial textiles of vivid silk and metallic gold or silver yarns. Variations in the motifs, layout, and colors indicate not only which village the wearer is from, but also marital status, social standing, and number of children.
- Each small black and red block on this white cloth is uniquely patterned with motifs and symbols that are recognizably different from clan to clan. These textiles are woven specifically for wear on certain ceremonial occasions, and even today have an important place in the cultural life of the Angami Naga.
The hill country of Nagaland in the far northeast of India has changed significantly over the past hundred years, and is now far more accessible to visitors than ever in the past. Naga peoples also live over the border in Burma.
