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 :o

Wow :eek:
Amazing pictures, but unfortunately wasnīt 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.

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

Hi !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thatīs it !!!!!! :eek:
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 couldnīt 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.
