Forbes Travel

The Korowai live in three houses high above the treetops of the rainforest of Irian Jaya. (New Guinea). They know of neither iron nor pottery and they are only aware of the existence of a world beyond their own through hearsay. Some of their houses are located 50m above the ground. Fear of attacks from their neighbors drives the Korowai to these heights.

When peace returns among the clans, the houses are lowered a little. Each hut takes about three weeks to build, every five years, when the old hut rots away, a new one is constructed.
If you are interested to watch the life of different people .

Please visits Irian Jaya in New Guinea.
