The Wa people have a rich civilization of their own, and a deep
history in the mountains of Southeast Asia. Their mythology
suggests their land is the first place inhabited by humans, which
they care for on behalf of the world. This book introduces aspects
of Wa culture, including their approach to the world's troubles and
the lessons others might learn from it. It also presents a new
interpretation of Wa headhunting, questioning explanations that see
it as a primitive custom, and instead placing it within the fraught
history of the last few centuries.
