Large Tapa cloth from Sentani Papua - Maro - Sentani area...

A large traditional maro, or tapa cloth, from the Lake Sentani area of West Papua. Made from beaten tree bark, such cloths were worn or carried during dances, ceremonies and festive gatherings, forming an important part of Sentani material culture. Its generous size gives the piece a particularly strong decorative presence. Field collected in the Sentani area in the 1990s and well suited for display in a collection of Oceanic or ethnographic art.
