| 50 of 77. Even headhunters have to keep ahead!. This Iban elder (the Iban tribe of interior Borneo were former headhunters) was intrigued by my laptop computer. He wanted to trade me a human skull and his parang (a headhunting sword) for this laptop. I had to refuse. I already had a parang from previous trips and I didn't think U.S. customs would look too highly on bringing back a skull. Beside, when the battery ran out he would probably come looking for my skull. |
