PRIMITIVE FOREST OF WILD MOI WITH ALL THE INHABITANTS ARRAYED IN FULL DRESS
Here we have complete one of the little, wandering jungle tribes of the
backlands of Annam. This is the centre of the village, and the big house
of bamboo-wattled walls which we see is the communal rice granary; nearby
is the hut for marriageable lads, awaiting the ceremony of initiation
into manhood. Save for loin-cloth or skirt, dress consists of copper
and brass ornaments, with large bead or metal necklaces
