EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Five Male Members of the Mois Tribe, Binh Thuan Province, Vietnam: A Glimpse into the Past of the Indigenous Degar People" This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, showcasing the daily life of five male members of the Mois Tribe, also known as the Degar or Montagnard, in the Central Highlands of Vietnam during the 1910s. The men, with their faces etched with the marks of time and their bodies adorned with traditional attire, are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of this indigenous population. The men are seen partially clothed, preserving their modesty with the use of cloth wrapped around their waists and loins. Their bodies are adorned with intricate beaded necklaces and beads, symbolizing their tribal identity and connection to their land. The lion motif on their clothing, a common design among the Degar people, adds a sense of pride and strength to their appearance. The mountainous terrain of Binh Thuan Province, where this photograph was taken, has been the ancestral home of the Degar people for generations. Living in the uplands, they have developed a unique and resilient way of life, adapting to the challenging conditions of the highlands. The Degar people, often referred to as the "Mountain People" or the "Highlanders," have faced numerous challenges throughout history. Colonialism, political instability, and societal discrimination have threatened their way of life and their cultural traditions. This photograph serves as a reminder of their history and the importance of preserving the unique cultural heritage of indigenous populations around the world. As we look at this image, we are transported back in time, offering us a glimpse into the lives of these five men and their community, and the rich history of the Mois Tribe in the Central Highlands of Vietnam.
