axes
Thanks Stan, I really began to doubt any of the information I posted was correct. Any thoughts on the Khond?

Sorry Steve, can't give you too much info on Khond. Tribal peoples of India are not my specialty, just some of their wepons are
 As far as I can tell Khond is one of the larger groups known for living in the mountains of Central India (i. e. Orissa, Chota Nagpur, etc.) and using a viriety of two-handed axes or short polearms as their primary weapon for hand-to-hand combat. By teh way, a bollova is also a Khond weapon... Google image search brings up a bunch of photos of tribal women with intricate facial tattoos and traditional Indian garb of colorful saris. Thats all I know. Perhaps another member can tell us more?

I ran into this axe which seems to be very similar the what is shown as being a tungi axe. If someone has any additional info please post it.
