Drokpa Nomads - Tibetan Black Tent

[@mathstrengthcom8574]

Tibet is a wonderful land with hardworking and beautiful people. It is a bit difficult to live here but it is wonderful for Tibetans, they have adapted to the environment. What wonderful people, they work all day with a smile on their face - God help.

[@glennlopez6772]

Thanks for the video! When it comes to weaving, most educated humans apart from hobbyists will be helpless if required to make the fabric shown here. It seems that weaving was a contribution of a woman's mind passed on for generations. A man's mind could also have come up with something but was mostly engaged in other activity. Women should never forget or underestimate their natural creativity.

[@kimfleury]

It's interesting that over the decades, nomadic people are wearing more Western clothing. The documentaries we watched on TV and in school movies 50 years ago, as well as the National Geographic magazines from that time, always showed the people in traditional clothing. Now it seems they all have t-shirts and jeans or khakis. They didn't used to fuss with their clothing, either. I noticed these men and women all had to stop to pull up their pants or skirts.

[@green_fox12]

Totally agree with you! It's like this unspoken pressure to wear western clothing. I spent my whole 4 years of highschool wearing my full shalwar kameez with chadar and no one wanted to be friends with me. I got used to it in the end. Then I started wearing black trousers with my kameez and chadar and was so uncomfortable for 4 years. Soon as I graduated I never wore trousers ever again. Went straight back to comfy linen shalwars and it was like I could breathe again. Wish these nomadic people didn't loose their traditional clothing 😔

It's amazing how similar are the tents of the middle east and the Tibetan people are. How did they all got the same idea.

[@NomadArchitecture]

They travelled along ancient trade routes, yurts with mongol warriors to the north, black tents with arabs/persian traders further south. But actually the tibetan tent then developed to be quite unique and different as it is a mesh of ropes over which the cloth is draped. An adaptation as they used yak hair rather than camel and goat. Also if you look at my vid on berber tents you will see that the looms are much more basic. The frame came from the meeting with chinese culture. Yurt and black tent both met in Afghanistan where sadly I cannot safely go - Well you did ask!

The most amazing thing is how they embrace such tedious work. Goes to show what humans have done over the centuries to survive.

[@sophieonthemtn1239]

It's done in community and under their control. Anything done together will be more interesting. It's under modern industrialization processes that work became Taylorized and removed from the control of the worker. That sort of work alienates us from the product, the production process, each other, and ultimately ourselves.
