A cultural cannibalism Papua Tribal Living Above the Tree

High above a forest land, much in the swampy lowland forests of Papua, a tree house greet the explorers of the world. Tree house in the height of more than 80 feet above the ground. This is a construction and home Kombai neighbor Korowai, tribes decorate their bodies with the bones and the cannibalism among them adapt

Home this summer to protect themselves from insects and the jungle, they also protect from flooding during the rainy season off. In addition, this house has a function as a fortress that is the place to shelter when the conflict between the tribes.

Korowai and Kombai is that different ethnic groups, each with their own language, but they manage to do and also share cultural practices that are similar. They were skilled in hunting, the hunting of prey including the cassowary and wild pig. This tribe still trade in objects such as jewelry and bone knife, and may be introduced to new ideas and metal wear in the 1970s, when the first missionaries arrived. Tools such as a sharp bamboo is used to slice meat, shells to accommodate water, and hot water in the cooking stone.


Cannibalism is also common in the history of both tribes Kombai and Korowai. To Kombai, this is a form of tribal punishment, with the only person identified as a healer, killed and eaten by the people as offerings to the soul consumed by the defendant. Cannibalism important in the world unseen, similar to the trust and Korowai may also have been done as part of their criminal justice system.

In some places they also accompany women to the gardens daily when they are weaned. from the discovery of a jawbone archaeologist estimate the pig arrived about 6,500 years ago. while many other people of the world were still hunter and gatherers ,Irian people had begun to garden. after fairly recently , many of the people lived within a simple Stone Age culture wearing little clothing and decorating their bodies with painting , shells ,pig tusks ,feathers and skins. there is a plethora of languages in the province, perhaps some 250 in all, each representing a tribal group which mixes little with the others.


Some of the more remote groups still have virtually no contact whit the outside world. In recent years, Indonesians from elsewhere in the country such as Java ,Sumatra and Sulawesi have come to the province.
