My Collection 1 : For hunters 我的收藏品之一 :猎人的用具

I love collecting handicraft, and it is always part of my experience during my journey. It would be great for me to share with you my collection.

This wooden item was bought from Sulawesi. Hunters used this container to keep the poison for hunting purpose. The poison could be from plants or from animals such as snakes, or scorpions. Hunters hang this item at their waist. Whenever they are ready to hunt, they will put poison on the needle, and a blowpipe will be used to shoot the needle towards the animal.


我爱走爱看,也喜欢收集世界各地的手工艺品。我想除了把这些收藏品摆设在柜子里,或许我可以在这里与大家分享。

这一个小小的木制器具来自印尼苏拉威西。猎人们会把这器皿挂在腰间。从植物或动物如毒蛇,蝎子等提取的毒物将被置放在这器皿的小空间里。当找到猎物时,猎人们会把针点上这毒物,再用喷管将针射向猎物。
