This is an indispensable contribution to the literature on the material culture of the peoples of Vietnam's Central Highlands. In addition to providing a great deal of new information on the textiles of the �d� and Mn�ng, two of most important ethnic in groups in the Central Highlands, it also discusses baskets and architectural decoration. These and other peoples in the central Highlands have a very rich traditional material culture that has been neglected in Southeast Asian literature to a great extent. The present work amply illustrates just how rich this tradition is and will help to draw attention to a heritage that is rapidly disappearing. Maps, drawings of patterns, black and white photographs, and over 200 color photographs accompany the text. 182 pp. fully illustr. in colour. Size: 30 x 21 cm.

Riassunto

This is an indispensable contribution to the literature on the material culture of the peoples of Vietnam's Central Highlands. In addition to providing a great deal of new information on the textiles of the �d� and Mn�ng, two of the most important ethnic groups in the Central Highlands, it also discusses baskets and architectural decoration. These and other peoples in the Central Highlands have a very rich traditional material culture that has been neglected in Southeast Asian literature to a great extent. The present work amply illustrates just how rich this tradition is and will help to draw attention to a heritage that is rapidly disappearing. Maps, drawings of patterns, black and white photographs, and over 200 color photographs accompany the text.
