神祕原始部落煙燻祖先遺體制成木乃伊
Extraordinary photos have emerged showing a tribe chief holding the perfectly mummified remains of one of his ancestors in a remote Indonesian village.
根據幾張奇特的照片顯示，在印尼的一個偏遠山村，一個部落的首領竟然懷抱著一具儲存完好的木乃伊祖先遺體。Dani tribe chief Eli Mabel is pictured holding the remains of Agat Mamete Mabel in the village of Wogi in Wamena in West Papua.
這些照片拍攝於西巴布亞省瓦梅納市渥基村，該村的達尼部落首領依萊·梅布林懷抱著阿加·馬梅特·梅布林的遺體。The indigenous tribe, who live in a remote area of the Papuan central highlands, used to preserve their ancestors by smoking their bodies, which kept them in a near-perfect state for hundreds of years.
這一土著部落居住在巴布亞中部的高原地區，他們過去常常通過煙燻身體來儲存祖先的遺體，這一方法可使遺體幾乎能完好地儲存好幾百年。
The smoking mummification is no longer practiced, but the Dani tribes people still preserve a number of mummies as a symbol of their highest respect for their ancestors.
煙燻木乃伊化如今已被擯棄，但是達尼部落的人們仍然儲存了大量的木乃伊，以作為他們對祖先的最高敬意。In recent years the Dani tribe has attracted tourists from around the world, with some villages even showing their original customs and holding mock wars.
近些年來，達尼部落吸引了全球各地的遊客，一些村莊甚至還展示他們的原始習俗，並進行模擬戰爭。Every August the Dani hold mock battles with neighbouring tribes – the Lani and Yali peoples - to celebrate the fertility and welfare of the Papua province as well as upholding ancient traditions.
每年八月，達尼部落都會和臨近部落，比如拉尼部落和亞里部落，一起開展模擬戰爭，以慶祝巴布亞省土壤肥沃、人民生活幸福以及源遠流長的古老傳統。The people of Baliem Valley, the Dani, Lani and Yali tribes, were discovered accidentally by American zoologist and philanthropist Richard Archbold, while on a zoological expedition to New Guinea in 1938.
達尼部落、拉尼部落和亞里部落這些居住在巴列姆山谷的居民，都是在1938年被前往新幾內亞進行動物考察的美國動物學家及慈善家理查德·阿奇博爾德在無意中發現的。In the Dani tribe, the men wear distinctive tribal attire, including face paint, feathers, animal bones and intricate penis sheaths named Koteka. The women wear skirts made from woven orchid fibres decorated with straw and woven bags.
達尼部落的男性身著與眾不同的部落服飾，其中包括臉上的油彩、皮革、動物骨頭和名為Koteka的複雜陰莖鞘。而女性穿的裙子主要是由編織的蘭花纖維製成，同時飾以稻草和編織包。
