Hello Peter,
Thanks for chiming in! Quote:
Sumbawa received a very heavy dose of cultural input from Gowa. As already mentioned, blades from Sulawesi (especially its Southeast) were heavily traded throughout the eastern islands; it would not surprise me to also find some on Sumbawa, too. Quote:
Most swords attributed to Sumbawa in AvZ are actually based on traditional styles already established by Gowa (or other ethnic groups from South[west] Sulawesi). Regards, Kai |
