幾百年來巴布亞島深山部落煙燻木乃伊幾乎以完美狀態保存下來

Extraordinary photos have emerged showing a tribe chief holding the perfectly mummified remains of one of his ancestors in a remote Indonesian village.

一組獨特的照片顯示在一偏遠的印尼人村莊裏一部落首領抱着一具幾乎完美的祖先木乃伊遺骸。

Dani tribe chief Eli Mabel is pictured holding the remains of Agat Mamete Mabel in the village of Wogi in Wamena in West Papua, an island in the centre of Papua New Guinea.

照片上，丹尼人部落首領在巴布亞新幾內亞的中心島嶼西巴布亞島的Wogi in Wamena村莊裏抱着Agat Mamete Mabel的遺骸。

The indigenous tribe, who live in a remote area of the Papuan central highlands, used to preserve their ancestors by smoking their bodies, which kept them in a near-perfect state for hundreds of years.

這些生活在偏遠的巴布亞中部高原的土著部落通過煙燻屍體的方式製成木乃伊，幾百年來幾乎以完美的狀態保存下來。

The smoking mummification is no longer practiced, but the Dani tribes people still preserve a number of mummies as a symbol of their highest respect for their ancestors.

這種煙燻木乃伊方法已經不再實施，但是丹尼人依然保存着大量的木乃伊以表示對祖先的最高敬意。

In recent years the Dani tribe has attracted tourists from around the world, with some villages even showing their original customs and holding mock wars.

最近幾年，丹尼人部落吸引了來自世界各地的遊客，有些村莊甚至開始展示他們的原始傳統以及舉行戰鬥演習。
