CULTURAL SYMBOLISM: n Southeast Asia, rice is generally accredited with personality status, and according to oral traditions, this plant originate from a human sacrifice. Basket designs that are carefully reproduced and well-executed are believed to please the ‘life-force’ of rice. Motifs may be received in dreams, and through other forms of contact with the spirit world. It is believed that specific motifs may activate powerful forces causing sickness and even death. Thus, special norms must be followed before introducing novices to the weaving of ‘prohibited’ patterns. The social significance of baskets has been documented across the region, although ethnographic sources are scant.
