DAYAK WARRIORS. NOTE DAYAK WARCOATS AND THE SIZE OF THE POINTS ON THE WAR SPEARS IN SOME PICTURES. ONE DAYAK HAS A PISO PODANG. THE SINGLE WARRIOR IN A WARCOAT WAS DATED 1909 OTHERS NO DATE. ONE PICTURE OF SWORD PRACTICE WITH PROTECTIVE PADDING. ONE PICTURE OF MOCK BATTLE WITH WARRIOR PREPARING TO TAKE A HEAD. PERHAPS SOMEONE WITH MORE KNOWLEGE CAN IDENTIFY TRIBES.

I LIKE THIS PICTURE AND SO WILL THE DHA GUYS. NOTE TWO SEEM TO HAVE DHA AND SEVERAL HAVE THE STRANGE AX WHICH I THINK IS REFERRED TO AS A MAK. THERE WAS AN OLD POST WITH A PICTURE OF WARRIORS ON HORSE BACK AND SOME HAD A STRANGE WEAPON. I HAD ONE AND POSTED THE PICTURE AND I THINK MARK IDENTIFIED IT AS A MAK. I SEARCHED BUT COULD NOT FIND THE POST FOR REFRENCE. ITS NICE TO SEE THE TRIBESMEN AND HOW THEY CARRIED THEM BALANCED ON THEIR SHOULDER. I HAVE A MAK AND A SMOKING PIPE FROM THIS GROUP.

Where: Sudan
When: Unknown, early 1900s? Who: Sudanese warriors, I think it is an attempt to show Madhist period but could well be later. Weapons visible: Spears, kaskara, note the one chap in the back seems to have one of those triple croc dagger arrangements. Source if known: Staged French postcard |
