Burma Handbook
Relates Strange
Tales of Hills
London tri Head-hunting and
communal love-making are In
cluded In the Oriental mysticism
of complex Burma, officials rec
ordn disclosed.
An offlclnl "Burma Handbook"
published by the Burmese govern
ment snld the countless indigen
ous tribes of Burma arc allied to
tho Chinese, Japanese, Koreans,
Tibetans, Malays and other In
habitants of eastern Asia.
The book tells of "love houses"
In tribal villages, surrounded by
bamboo stakes hardened by fire
and sunk into the ground as bar
ricades, and giraffe-necked wom
en who roll cheroots in the curve
of their thighs.
"It is Impossible to mention in
detail more than the principal
races of Burma," It said: "They
are all firm believers in magic
and are convinced that invulner
ability against wounds can be
conferred by magical rites."
Hate Marriage
The reports tell of the great va
riety of races in the Shan states.
Including the "curious Banyok, of
whom only six families survive
because of their marked distaste
for marriage to which they sub
mit only under official compul
sion." The Shan states also are inhab
ited by the Pandaungs, whose wo
men "stretch their necks to giraffe-like
proportions by wearing
brass necklets to which extra
rings are added from the day of
their birth."
In the northeast of Burma the
wild Nagas still pursue head-hunting
and believe in human sacri
fice. Among another tribe called the
Wa, head-hunting is regarded as
necessary for their fertility rites
at ploughing time and "in an aver
age year, 60 to 100 heads will be
taken in the area."
Most of the tribes, it said, "have
little interest in modern party
conflicts and many of them re
gard present-day politicians as up
starts and have a lingering nostal
gia for the days of the king."
Attain Nirvana
By religion the Burmese proper
are almost exclusively Buddhist,
with a creed "to store up merit
by good living so that a man will
not be reborn in this world or in
any of the spirit worlds but will
attain to Nirvana, where self-consciousness
ceases," the Burma
Handbook said.
It added, "Although the great
majority of Buddhist Pongyis or
monks are 'virtuous members of
their order, some younger mem
bers have lately intervened in pol
itics and 'certainly proved a
source of trouble'."
The Burma Handbook describes
tribes named Yahows, Klang
Klangs, Vamtus and Kukis and
the wide variety of languages and
dialects spoken. -
Details of weird rites and cus
toms are included in the reports
on remote tribes, which still re
sist all intrusion with spears, poi
soned arrows and bamboo spikes.
"Every village has a love house
In which young couples foregath
er, fregnancy is always followed
by a public admission of mar
riage. And there are men's clubs
into which an outsider's entrance
is a grievous offence."
