Scope and Contents:
Edited film produced and distributed by Excelsior Picture Corporation was shot in the course of the Cotlow New Guinea expeditions in 1958 and 1959 to the Australian territory of Papua New Guinea and West Irian, Dutch New Guinea (Irian Barat). The expedition visits a number of patrol posts in the territories and accompanies various Australian and Dutch district patrol officers on their circuit. In the Mount Hagen area the expedition films a murder trial presided over by the patrol officer and practices associated with the lamentation of the dead. Sequences include a Dani pig feast (Balim Valley) and a mock raid by the Kukukuku who also display courthsip rituals and the mummification of dead relatives. Film concludes with a major sing-sing (probably the "Hagen Show") at which Aiome Pygmies, the "mudmen" of the Asaro River region, and Minj, Enga, Hageners, Chimbu, and Goroka peoples ceremonially display themselves.
