Modern head-hunting
Hello,
In 1998 and 2001, there were violent conflicts in Kalimantan between local Dayak tribes and Madurese who had been settled trough the Indonesian government's transmigration programme. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asi...ic/1191865.stm Many people were decapitated and heads were missing, so it appears that some Dayaks can still resurect the old practice if pushed too far. Regards, Emanuel |

Hi Ben,
having the hilt remains of red hairs, I hoped it was really used (also if to me looked quite recent). However thank You for the really clarifying pics. Paolo |
