EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a traditional welcome dance performance by local girls and women of Tuvalu, in the Gilbert Islands of the Pacific, during the 1970s. The scene takes place indoors, in a hut adorned with intricately woven mats, providing a warm and inviting atmosphere. The dancers, dressed in colorful native costumes, are engaged in a lively and rhythmic dance, welcoming visitors to their island community. The girls and women, with their expressive faces and graceful movements, embody the rich cultural heritage and customs of Tuvalu. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a historical record of the Polynesian people and their unique traditions, which continue to be an important part of their identity and way of life. The scene is reminiscent of the Scouting movement, with the girls and women forming a circle, reminiscent of a Scout troop or Girl Guide group, engaged in an activity that celebrates their community and traditions. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of culture and tradition, and the importance of preserving and celebrating the diverse heritage of the Pacific Islands.
