Citation:  Goldstein, Melvyn C. & Beall, Cynthia M. Nomads of Western Tibet. University of California Press 1990, Chapter 6.
Index Words:  mowing, sickle, nomadism, hayfield
Place:  Tibet
Notes:  The haycutting are consisted primarily of tall vegetation (about one to one-and-a-half feet) thick enough to be gathered into a handful and cut with a sickle. At 8 a.m. on the specified day, an official blew a whistle to start the cutting. Everyone rushed to the adjacent slopes and plains in search of the perfect spot. People would cut for an hour or so, stuffing handfuls of grass into their cloaks, then pause to fashion them into two-foot-long twists and carry bundles of these back to their tent to dry.
