Clean pots and pans

The newly made house wall behind this platform shows the contrast between outer green and inner cream-colored sides of split bamboo, aesthetically admired by the Mewun. When completely dry, the whole panel turns golden. An after-dinner scene with the children playing in the background, and a drying place for pots and pans brought back from washing at the river.
