Abstract

Description

This photograph was taken at Koroba Provincial High School, via Koroba, Southern Highlands (now Hela) Province, Papua New Guinea. The photographer first met this individual in Dec 1979 (see image ANUA 717-3). Photographer's note: The forehead-band is made of locally-sources of Job's tear seeds, rather than tiny shells traded from the coast but he has acquired a few red trade beads.
