Title

According to the custom of the Negritos, the preparation of the poison...

Description

"According to the custom of the Negritos, the preparation of the poison which will be used in the blowpipe, for example, is a task that is always left to the older and more experienced men. The younger members do not participate in it. But nowadays, many of the Negritos do not make their own blowpipes, for they are bought instead of the Temiar, and so the preparation of the poison has become rather less important."
