An elderly Apatani female sits at the entrance of her house.She no longer can work at the rice field like how she used to cause of her age.She now sometimes share the old stories with her grand children and other kids from the village. At present, she is one of the last generation of older women from the Apatani villages to have the prominent facial emblems, a reminder of a cultural practice that is now chronicled in the past. A past where they wear large nose plugs and face tattoos.
