Wim Tok Mabel's mummy held by one of his descendant. Apparently the mummy is 362 years old. Wim Tok Mabel was a "big man" and everybody in the valley wanted his advices. Even nowadays somebody is looking for them! Sumpaima village, Baliem valley (Papua Barat, Indonesia).

    This shot is great, and I could spend a year looking at photos on your site. Each one is a masterpiece, a story that stands alone. You are really putting that MarkII to great use.bowdown.gif
