Abstract:
Starke Stengel des Erograstis-Grases werden mit gedrillter Schnur aus Kalahari-Sisal (Sansevieria scabrifolia) zu einer Matte geknüpft. Mit dieser Matte werden die gerösteten Kerne der Tsama-Melone aus der Asche gesiebt. Die Kerne werden zerstampft, mit Wasser zu Brei verarbeitet und in das Gesicht gerieben.
Abstract:
A man makes a long stout string of the fibres of the Kalahari sisal, while his wife arranges several shafts of stout grass parallel to each other on the ground. Taking a string, she locates its middle and loops it around the end of one of the grass pieces. The she passes the ends of the string under and over, alternating with each blade of grass until she has fastened, both next to each other and parallel, enough grass for the mat. She continues binding these together by going back and forth across the mat until she reaches the other end of it. To wash she roasts seeds of the tsama melon in hot sand and ashes. With her mat she sieves out all the sand and ashes until only roasted seeds and wood particles (which she removes manually) are left in the sieve. These seeds she stamps to a meal in the mortar. This she permeates with water to form a paste and rubs it over her face. When it is dry she brushes it off and appears oiled and clean.
