Kayan Kenyah Tattoo series 1

Description: Daun Sip leaves for roofing. Leaves are also used to pack rice or as a plate for food. When drying the leaves, they need to be weighed down by something heavy, as they will otherwise roll up. Because of this, the young leaves are also used as cigarette papers. Kenyah, Long Atun, Tinjar, see JE50-29-11-1956 (c.horn)
