Why are you reporting this puzzle?

One of the tribes inhabiting the Baliem Valley region, in the midst of the Jayawijaya mountain range of Papua Indonesia, is the Yali ‘Lords of the Earth’. They live in the virgin forests of the highlands. The Yali are officially recognised as pygmies, with men standing at just 150 cm tall.

Papuan tribes, different in appearance and language, have a similar way of life. They are all polygamist and conduct rituals for important occasions at which reciprocal exchange of gifts is obligated. The Koteka, penis gourd, is a piece of traditional clothing used to distinguish tribal identity.

Wolo Valley

Though different in appearance and language, the two tribes of the
Jayawijaya mountain range and the Korowai have a similar way of
life. Both the Korowai and pygmy Yali are hunter-gatherers,
practice less sophisticated cultivation techniques and keep fewer
pigs than the farmers of the Dani, who use an efficient irrigation
system and enjoy huge harvests of their staple sweet potatoes.
