A weaver's belt for a hand loom, pa'ātan, tied to either end of the waist template, ipītan.
It is made of woven rattan or leather. The weaver fits the belt around her back and pushes against it, with her feet braced against some solid object, punhi'ādan. This action keeps the warp taut for weaving.
