The Dreaded Kukukuku Tribe of PI:

There are a few native villages
around Koremn. l’apua. nil friendly to
the government, which they regard as
their chief protection from tlte mys-
terious and much-dreaded Kukukuku
tribe.
These Kultukukus sound more like
something out of a mediaevai goblin
story than anything modern and real.
They are cannibais. and live high up
in the unexplored ranges one can see
from the shore. Their neat yam and
taro gardens checker the upper peaks

dustrious and orderly. and fond of n
relish with their food. At times they
descend in small. active parties upon
the tribes of the coast. and stalk them
from the shelter of the bush. until an
opportunity occurs of cutting off one
or two alone. They are little, quick
and cunning. and their death-dealing
raids often take place without exciting
any suspicion on the part of the vio-
tims’ friends, until gaps among the
ranks of familiar faces tell their client
tale.
Not long before our visit they made
a descent down to the very beach. hid‘
den by the forest. darted out, captured
two of the children playing on the
shore, and vanished with their prey.
