Peasants in these parts at work with shirt
sleeves rolled up display a Christian sym

ink on their brown skin. This has been
imprinted on the occasion of some special
festival.
wooden block is pressed upon the
tightly drawn skin TO mark the outlines of
the design. This is then punctured, ard n
blue ink is rubbed into the wounds, which
usually heal in about twenty-foar hours.
The custom, which is essentially Christian.
