at House Entrance:
Although the sun is very bright, this is a good closeup of a house
entrance. You can see the woven "suuti" on the right side of
the roof, mixed with old cloth and some hides on the left. Just inside
the doorway are a couple of water jugs. You can also see an interior wall
directly in front, inside the door. A lowland house typically has a sleeping
area for older children, husband, and guests, and a smaller sleeping area
near the fire for the house's owner--the woman. Every rural woman builds
and owns her own house. |
