EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1922, showcases two Kalabit tribe blacksmiths at work in the heart of Borneo, then a part of the British Empire in Southeast Asia. The men, dressed in traditional attire, are intently focused on their craft, using two cylinders made from palm stems as bellows to fan the flames of their furnace. The image transports us back in time to the 1920s, a decade marked by cultural and technological transformations around the world. The Kalabit people, also known as the Kelabit, are an indigenous ethnic group residing in the highlands of Sarawak, Borneo. They have a rich cultural heritage, with a strong emphasis on community and tradition. Blacksmithing has long been an integral part of their way of life, providing them with essential tools and weapons. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these skilled artisans, showcasing their dedication and mastery of their craft. The men's focused expressions and the fiery glow of the furnace create a sense of intensity and energy, making this image a powerful reminder of the human spirit and the enduring nature of traditional practices. As we admire this photograph today, we are reminded of the diverse and fascinating people and cultures that make up our world's history. The Kalabit blacksmiths and their craft serve as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of human beings, and the importance of preserving and celebrating our cultural heritage.
