Abstract

'Koppensnellen' is a Dutch term for head hunting, which' was practiced by most of the indigenous people of Kalimantan, the Dayak, until around the 1 gth Century. In order to accommodate either life or death rituals the Dayak perceives head hunting activity as a prerequisite aspect of their custom and performed as one of the manifestation of their belief. Nevertheless, there are Oayak, the Pun an and Meratus, who does not carry out head hunting activity, since their belief does not require such undertakings. It is suggested that the earliest practice of head hunting in Southeast Asia mainland was taken place in Non Nok Tha, Thailand, dated 4,000-3,000 BCE, and conveyed by the Austronesian-language-speaking people to the archipelago during the first half of the second millennium BCE. This article discusses the historical development of head hunting activity in Kalimantan.
