The book is based on fieldwork carried out by the author between 2005 and 2009. Gavin writes: "This study provides a record for ethnic groups in Sarawak and West Kalimantan of textiles that many of the groups themselves no longer possess." The book will be a unique resource for identifying the styles and ethnic associations of textiles in public and private collections, as well as a document of vanishing weaving traditions.

This 1936 memoir was the first investigation into and illustration of the beautiful and intimate patterns of Iban textiles. Haddon began his study of these native fabrics and garments with the collection in the Sarawak museum, Kuching. His own collection is now in the Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology.

The textile art from northern Borneo, made by the Iban, Kantu, Ketungau, and Mualang tribes, is highly distinctive and extraordinarily rich. In this remarkable book, more than 150 full-page brilliant color photographs of textiles from one of the world’s outstanding private collections shed new light on this timeless tradition. The works are ceremonial textiles used in rites of passage—birth, marriage, death—dyed with natural colors and woven in traditional ikat techniques; many have never been published before. Clothing worn during those ceremonies is also represented. As unmistakable as it is colorful, this Southeast Asian textile tradition remains influential for contemporary textile artists and designers.

IBAN OR SEA DAYAK FABRICS AND THEIR PATTERNS. A decriptive catalogue of Iban fabrics in the Museum of Archeology and Ethnology Cambridge. This book provides an analysis of the fascinating patterns used in the traditional wovern textiles of the Iban. Also includes a vocabulary of iban words used in connection with the cloths and in descibing the patterns. Originally published in 1936. Many of the earliest books on weaving, textiles and needlework, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

"The author describes the ikat, sungkit, pilih, and other forms of Iban weaving, the sculptures, the tattooing, metal forging, and other art of the Iban in the context of their oral sagas, stories, poetry, and love songs. He shows how art was used as a pre-literate scholastic aptitude test to ensure intelligent Iban married other intelligent Iban to increase the likelihood that their children were intelligent and were more likely to prosper. Women also chose men on the basis of their prowess at war to ensure the household, physically, was secure. That meant heads and headhunting. The book shows how weaving and headhunting came to be ritualized, the one encouraging the other, so that sexual selection was bound into the Iban's holy trinity of taking heads, growing rice, and birth or regeneration." --Publisher.

What knowledge is conserved about ikat textiles and their use in the Indonesian archipelago consists primarily of the records of missionary and scientific fieldwork, predominantly compiled by non-Indonesians. The coverage is thin-many weaving regions are covered by only one or two sources, and several regions have never been studied in detail. Much traditional knowledge is being lost, especially in the more remote island regions in the Indonesian archipelago, which require a concerted effort if any trace of their culture is to survive. UMAG hopes to contribute to the broader project by means of this publication, which shows ikat culture through a close reading of examples from over fifty weaving regions-several covered for the first time-and an introduction to the conditions, beliefs and customs of the various peoples who have created and used them. The book was enriched by the collaboration of twelve region-specific experts who gave critical feedback on chapters or provided details on techniques and motifs that only they could have provided. - Verlagsangaben.
