Bhirandiara - Kutch - Gujarat - India
Meghwar tribe - one the hidden tribes of Gujarat
Bezoek aan het dorpje van de Bhirandiara bewoond door de Meghwar tribe.
De Meghwar vrouwen zijn zeer kunstzinnig en maken een bijzonder soort borduurwerk waarin ze spiegels verwerken, die spiegels plaatsen ze ook in de modder van de muren, waaruit hun huizen gemaakt zijn. De Meghwar vrouwen dragen zeer mooie kanjari, de plaatselijk gemaakte blouses. In de oren en de neus dragen vooral oudere vrouwen, net als de Jat, vaak kleurrijke juwelen.
The Meghwal (Megh or Sindhi: ميگهواڙ Meghwar‎) people live primarily in northwest India, with a small population in Pakistan. They were classified as lower community under Hindu ritual ranking system and are now classified as a Scheduled Caste under India's system of positive discrimination.They were traditionally considered outside the Hindu ritual ranking system of castes known as varna. Their traditional occupation was weaving. Most are Hindu by religion, with Rishi Megh, Kabir, Ram Devji and Bankar Mataji their chief gods.
In the countryside of Rajasthan, many of the people of this community still reside in small hamlets of round, mud-brick huts painted on the outside with colourful geometric designs and decorated with detailed mirror inlays. In earlier days the main occupation of the Meghwal community was agricultural labour, weaving, specially Khadi and woodcarving, and these are still the main occupations. The women are famous for their embroidery work and are master wool and cotton weavers.
Their staple diet includes rice, wheat and maize, and pulses such as moong, urad and channa. They are not vegetarian but eat egg, fish, chicken and mutton when available, although they abstain from pork, beef and buffalo meat.
The Meghwal women in Rajasthan are renowned for their exuberantly detailed costumes and jewellery. Married women are often spotted wearing gold nose ring, earrings and neckpieces. They were given to the bride as a "bride wealth" dowry by her soon-to-be husband's mother. Nose rings and earrings are often decorated with precious stones of ruby, sapphire and emerald. The Meghwal women's embroidery is avidly sought after. Their work is distinguished by their primary use of red, which comes from a local pigment produced from crushed insects. The Meghwal women artisans of Thar desert in Sindh and Balochistan, and in Gujarat are considered master of the traditional embroidery and Ralli making. Exotic hand-embroidered items form part of dowry of Meghwal woman.
Women have low status in traditional Meghwal society. Marriages are arranged through negotiation between the families before puberty. After marriage, the wife moves to the husband's house, except for the period of childbirth. However, divorce is allowed, with the father retaining liability for the children and compensation paid to the wife.

She was one of the last 25NC that remained in service at Beaconsfield. Once mainline working finished in April 1992 she was used on the shunt until steam ended in December 1992. Today she is part of the Sandstone Heritage Trust collection and is stored at Kommandonek station which is adjacent to the Sandstone Estates farm in the Free State.
Thank you for taking the time to view my photo,
maybe for your faves and comments, I appreciate that very much!
Got myself some short rubber riding boots to test because I liked the look of them. Headed out to the usual quarry and went for it but of course with my noras as well. These boots are one size too small so they stuck to my feet even after I filled them up and went through the most sticky mud. Some images have some additional story.

Bhuj - Hodka - Kutch - Gujarat - India
Hodka Shaam-E-Sarhad Village Resort.
We bezoeken verschillende dorpen in de Kutch.
We wandelen in de dorpen bewoond door de Khatri, de Sodha Raiput, de Meghwar, de Halepotra, de Jat, de Raisipotra en de Summa. Het zijn vooral veekwekers.
De Meghwar vrouwen zijn zeer kunstzinnig en maken een bijzonder soort borduurwerk waarin ze spiegels verwerken, die spiegels plaatsen ze ook in de modder van de muren, waaruit hun huizen gemaakt zijn. De Meghwar vrouwen dragen zeer mooie kanjari, de plaatselijk gemaakte blouses. In de oren en de neus dragen vooral oudere vrouwen, net als de Jat, vaak kleurrijke juwelen.
De Samma zijn vooral herders en hebben weinig contact met vreemdelingen, die ze eerder wantrouwen.
Stop aan een tentenkamp in Hodka Shaam-E-Sarhad Village Resort.
In Hodka kregen we van de overheid toestemming voor een fotostop. De vrouwen met neusjuweel van de Meghwar tribe zijn heel mooi maar eerder onwillig bij het fotograferen.

Heerlijke wandeling gemaakt op mijn laarzen. Ik kon de verleiding niet weerstaan om ze vast te trappen in de modder en m'n sokken vies te maken.

The start of the line stumps (or the end?) in a lot of mud. In the background you see the dike where Moddergat is lying behind.
Just after this photo I will lose my balance, because my feet are too deep in the mud... ;-(
Luckily I fell only on one side of my body and my photo gear was just standing on the tripod. And Frank helped me out of the mud.

Heerlijk een dagje m'n laarzen en sokken vies gemaakt. Aan het einde van de dag m'n laarzen verloren in de modder, heb ze hier achter gelaten en ben lekker op m'n sokken verder gegaan. Geile dag

Lekker na een flinke regenbui m'n laarzen en sokken vies gemaakt in de modder. Heerlijk als m'n laarzen compleet vastgezogen worden en ik ze daarna verlies. Naderhand achtergelaten en hopelijk liggen ze er de volgende keer nog. Anders moet ik 'helaas' alleen op sokken. :)
De Stoopbank, een monument voor.
De inpolderingswerken duurden van 1926-1930 er werden duizenden werkelozen min of meer gedwongen om aan de inpoldering mee te werken. Dit gebeurde onder wat we nu erbarmelijke omstandigheden zouden noemen en veelal alleen met kruiwagen, spade en rooiijzer. Velen waren volstrekt niet in staat om dit zware handwerk in water en modder te volbrengen en haakten uiteindelijk af. Vaak werd men dan bestraft en als werkverzuimer aangemerkt. Het inpolderingsproject had weinig sociale kanten. Het was vooral bedoeld om de driekwart miljoen die Dordrecht aan ondersteuning moest afdragen te drukken. De arbeiders werden er niet veel wijzer van. Het aantal werkelozen dat werd aangewezen om in de Biesbosch te gaan werken bedroeg 3927. Hiervan zijn er uiteindelijk 886 niet aan het werk gegaan of moesten gedurende het werk afhaken. De afvallers werden maar al te gemakkelijk beschuldigd van ongeoorloofd verzuim, van verzet, van fraude of van het leveren van ondeugdelijk werk. Als een zwaard van Damocles hing de weigeraars boven het hoofd dat zij naar de Drentse veenkoloniën konden worden gestuurd. Dat is menigeen overkomen en waren daardoor letterlijk en figuurlijk veel verder van huis. Zij die de zeer zware arbeid fysiek niet goed aan konden ( en dat moest medisch worden vastgesteld) mochten vanwege hun lichamelijke conditie "licht" werk verrichten, maar dat lichte werk bestond uit; Het verkruien van grond, het dragen van wilgenstronken en het afgraven en verkruien van hoge naar lage plaatsen.
Het is maar wat je licht werk durft te noemen.....

This is the reason I wanted an M16 for so long.
Also, this is a possible entry for the Iron Modder contest, if George doesn't upload his.
Also, does this count for Round 2, Swiper?
Finally some good weather to take out my chest waders again. Found some mud and even a patch of (almost) quicksand where I went in to my knees. Needed quite some force to get out again.
