2074 Antique Sungkit Sirat Flag Textile Sungkit An exceptional Sungkit TextileAn exceptional Sungkit Textile The dealer in the field stated that these were used as banners or flags during headhunting raids. The books call this Sungkit Sirat and group them with loin cloths. Given the size of these group of textiles, it is easier to imagine this as a flag banner than as a loin cloth. More study needed. Superb Sungkit weaving. Unusual motifs. Estimated to be from the late 1800s early 1900s Borneo 76 cm x 29 cm EXTREMELY RARE
