Old type off pakayun

[VANDOO]

THANKS FOR POSTING THE PICTURES THIS PAKAYUN IS A EXCEPTIONAL EXAMPLE OF A RARE SWORD. I WAS WONDERING IF THE CARVED INSERTED PIECE IS WOOD, HORN OR SOMETHING ELSE, IT DEFINITELY ISN'T THE SAME KIND OF WOOD USED FOR THE REST OF THE HANDLE. I WISH I KNEW MORE ABOUT THE MURUT, THEIR CUSTOMS, ORIGINS, HISTORY AND BELIEFS . THEY SEEM TO BE DIFFERENT FROM MOST OF THE OTHER DAYAK TRIBES.
