Pertanyaan

Last vacation, I decided to visit the Dani tribe in Baliem Valley to do a little adventure.

First, I stopped at Muliama village, which was about 20 kilometres 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.

My eight-day trip to Baliem Valley gave me a remarkable impression of how rich Indonesia's culture is.

6. What did the Dani people do during the festival?

They killed pigs and other cattle.
They made war and killed each other.
They decorated their face with pig grease, clay ash, and fur.
They sang traditional songs and made offerings to the Gods.
