The following text is for questions 31 to 35.
Last vacation, I decided to visit the Dani tribe Baliem Valley to do a little adventure.
First, I stopped at Muliama village, which was about 20 kilometers from Wamena, to enjoy the Baliem Cultural Festival. It was held for several days. People of the Dani were singing, dancing and playing their traditional music in the festival. They painted their faces with pig grease, clay, ash and fur. They held their bows, arrows and spears to act as if they were attacking each other. However, no blood was shed . It was all intended only as a threatening show of force.
When the festival ended, I chose to join a trekking trip to the spectacular villages of the Dani. The trip gave me an opportunity to see the real lifestyle of the Dani people. I saw great wooden bridges across the fast-flowing mountain rivers. I also learnt that men and women did not live in one traditional house . Another amazing thing that I learnt was that people missing fingers were a result of a custom whereby both men and women might cut off their fingers if they were left by the loved one.
32. Why did the people of Dani cut off parts of their fingers?
To heal their diseases.
To express their sadness.
To make people pity them.
To make opponents scared.
