An Italian photographer has met an Indonesian tribe untouched by the modern world in the highlands of New Guinea.

Roberto Pazzi, of Treviglio, Italy, met the Dani people, who live in bamboo huts, hunt with spears and sacrifice pigs to celebrate marriage.

 

The 42-year-old photographer trekked into the island's Baliem Valley and visited several villages, where the tribe's simple life is far cry from the Western world.

Roberto says: 'The Dani people are generally very shy, however they're extremely curious.
'When I first arrived at their village, I was amazed by the way that they communicate - they often walk hand in hand with you and hold on to your shoulder.
'Although the women are very reserved, the children are the complete opposite - they're full of energy and eager to learn about the western world.

'Although none of the Dani people have ever left the island of New Guinea, the tribe are now used to small groups of visitors wanting to learn about their culture.'

The foundation of Dani tribe's diet is sweet potato, which grows in abundance in the humid conditions of the highlands.

The sweet potato is wrapped in banana skins and placed on top on hot stones over a fire to cook.

Roberto says: 'Before I visited this village, some of the Dani children had never seen a camera - their curiosity was fascinating.

'A few of the adults weren't too keen on having their photographs taken, however they love to see the picture in the end.

'They think that photographs are like miracles.'

Roberto says: 'Before I left to begin my trek, I filled my backpack with cigarettes and sugar.

'I needed to use these items in order to barter for basic necessities such as fire to boil and clean the water, and a hut for the night, which they call 'honai'.'

The language used by the Dani people is still unknown. However, it is thought that there are as many as four different languages used in the Dani community in different parts of the Baliem Valley.
