Weaving Story : Only the Lamalera community is allowed to weave motifs using a sperm whale and the traditional handcrafted boat used for whaling (Peledang). These boats (peledang), with palm leaf sails, are rowed by 13 men in Lamalera who are in search of large prey on the high seas. The one place in the WORLD where the sperm whale moti is woven.
