EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1906, showcases an extraordinary moment in the lives of the Women and Children of the Sakai Tribe from Perak, Malaysia. The Sakai Tribe, also known as the Lowland Samang, are an indigenous group known for their unique customs and close connection to nature. In this image, two older Sakai women are seen in an unusual yet natural setting, as they suckle young goats (kids) instead of their own children. This practice, which is not uncommon in certain indigenous communities, is believed to provide the young goats with an essential source of nutrition and strengthens the bond between the women and their tribe. The Sakai Tribe, with a population of approximately 2,000 people, has long been recognized for their traditional way of life. They reside in the dense forests of Perak, living off the land and practicing a subsistence economy. Their lifestyle, which remains largely unchanged for centuries, is a testament to their strong connection to their environment and their rich cultural heritage. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of these women and children, offering a rare insight into the customs and practices of a wild and little-known tribe from South East Asia. The bizarre yet beautiful scene captured in this image is a reminder of the diversity and richness of the world's many indigenous communities and the importance of preserving their traditions and way of life.
