I've fairly gone through some money just me and the lad in two days away, it adds up. If the Mrs had come we would have been eating in restaurants as well so it would of been expensive. Luckily me and the lad were happy with fish and chips. Managed to pick these tins up for a couple of quid in whitby 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did you take any pics mate.. There's a girl in the village called "Lynn" her nickname is Lynn pin.. She has the smallest head that I've ever seen in my life..its about the size of a shrunken head.. If they dried her head out when she died it would be amazingly small 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mushroom 13,099 Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) Love the Leeds armouries. Went when it first opened years ago. If you like that sort of thing and history to boot…. Valletta in Malta is for you. They have some amazing museums with 1000’s of years of history. Take a walk along battlements, built since before the Romans and added to over the millennia. Amazing to look at something that was there when crusaders passed through… oh and the love the Brit’s 19 hours ago, mackem said: I shall visit that sometime, I was lucky enough to be invited to the home in Toronto years ago of a guy TV studios called the real life indiana Jones, he had the largest private collection of shrunken human heads. Funnily enough I watched a documentary the other day about shrunken heads. Apparently 90% are fakes. Edited April 11, 2022 by mushroom Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, the genuine tsantsa, I mean genuine, go for decent £50k type cash, when you say fake there's genuine killed in battle, then there's human heads shrunk for the victoriana curio market, the goatskin/monkey etc don't figure into it, fakes in the trade usually refers to heads taken and shrunk just for sale or trade, I have seen quite a few, if your ever somewhere like pattaya pop into Ripleys, they have one on display. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aye the second type mate, made for Victorians. One was in a museum and they DNA tested it and it turned out to be a woman Women were never warriors in this culture (some tribe in Ecuador I think it was) and only defeated warriors had their heads shrunk.
