WHY NOT THE PEN IS MIGHTER THAN THE SWORD, IF THE GUY WITH THE SWORD DON'T KNOW WHERE TO FIND YOU THAT IS.
TOBACCO WAS AND IN SOME PLACES STILL IS A VALUABLE TRADE GOOD, SO SMOKEING OR CHEWING SUPPLYS WERE WELL PROTECTED. A BAMBOO CONTAINER WOULD DO THE JOB WELL IN THE TROPICS. I AGREE ON THE OTHER CONTAINER AND ITS CONTENTS NOT LIKELY SHAMANS KIT BUT PERHAPS TROPHYS OR THE MAKEINGS FOR A NECKLACE OR SOMETHING AND MOST LIKELY FROM AUSTRALIA.
