Dar! Dar! A normal greetings from a Surinamese
I have always been enthusiastic about one's country culture and norms I visited, I had to opportunity to learn a little about the surinamese's culture.This is a photo of some articulated work of the Trio Amerindians. I purchased some items for souvenir. Most of the craftwork comes from Kwamalasamutu.The Trio Amerindians have always worked with natural beads and features. During the 19th Century the German Kappler wrote in his journal how beautiful the aprons of beads were that the women were wearing, the Kwejoe's. In the good old days the rate for a large cotton hammock was one chopping knife, a small one was traded for two cards with buttons. Nowadays one pays with real hard cash.The Surinamese Trio lives in the area of Palumeu, and near the Corantijn River. The related Waiwai tribe lives in my country Guyana.I must say I'm proud to be one of the generation of the Amerindian.
