Burma image, WA0442. [A Ngorn girl with basket.] (Researcher's notes in brackets)
'The Chin man's method of carrying is on the back, the load being attached to a wooden yoke which fits on the back of the neck and the strain relieved by a band which passes through the ends of the yoke and round the brow of the head. The women invariably carry loads in large bamboo and cane baskets which rest against the shoulder blades and which are supported by a brow band' ['The Chin Hills: Vol. I', B. S. Carey and H. N. Tuck, Rangoon, 1896, p.166]
