Help, need to locate a lost link, Headhunters

OAKSP · 9th May 2008, 07:52 AM

Hello !

I found an Interesting link to a pdf book file and now I can not find it again.

This was about 19th Century headhunters in the Phillipines with many photos of people, weapons, etc, etc....

I have become crazy searching forums, google, etc... and finally I was suggested to ask members of this forum.

Thanks

Wow

Amazing pictures, but unfortunately wasn´t this...

I was a link of a book in pdf, this was the story of an american explorer where he was explaining their way of life in different aspects, also the different tribes of the area.

Thanks a lot.

Chapter 10: War, has some very interesting descriptions of the role of heads in the cultures observed.

Great reference t_c at the end could get acces to this file.

A great book even so, it is not the one I was talking about.

Many thanks.

Maybe it's this old book - Head Hunters of Northern Luzon by Cornelis de Witt Willcox?

Hi !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That´s it !!!!!!

I had a terrible confusion in my mind, once I found it I lost the link and has been in my mind for long time... I have been searching and searching but couldn´t find the concrete link.

In any case it has been an interesting task.

Thanks to all forumites I have found a lot of new and amazing information about the theme.

I hope that this would be a good reference to all people interested on this area.

Thanks again to all of you.
