Kalam, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea
The highlanders live by hunting, done primarily by men, and by gathering plants and growing crops, done primarily by women. The men help clear the land, but the rest of the cultivation is the responsibility of the ladies. The residents have plenty of good food, close-knit families and a great respect for the wonders of nature.
Nose piercing is a rite of passage for young boys of the Kalam tribe.
