What reading level is Head Hunters Black White And Brown book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When they went to bed they would put the skull on their sleeping-mat beside their heads, and if they dreamt they thought it was the spirit of their dead friend talking to them and advising them what they should do. As they believed all this, it was by no means strange that they liked to keep and preserve the skulls of their dead relatives. This is a very different matter from col- lecting the heads of dead enemies, which was very common in many parts of New Guinea and was also done in Torres St...raits.
In the early part of November, 1888, a few natives from Nagir and Muralug, then resident on Thursday Island, got up a dance to inaugurate the approach of the rainy season, or, as it is usually termed, the "nor'-west. " Night after night they practised their chant, and in the daytime they manufactured their masks. These were all of the same pattern, and consisted of a lower portion in the form of the usual conventional croco- dile's head, surmounted by a human face surrounded by a sort of frill of tortoiseshell fretwork ; below was a fringe of frayed leaves.
