  • 90+ year-old Leichat Wangnao, a Konyak warrior of Joboka village, Nagaland. Mr. Wangnao is one of only two tattooed Konyak warriors living in his village - the other is 103-year-old Ashen. He took his first head at the age of 14, and acquired three more over the course of his career. The faded zigzagging lines tattooed on his wrinkled arms tally the total number of successful military campaigns he participated in - four. The symmetry of his facial tattooing created a perfectly clear diamond on his nose. All of the tattooing was performed by a female artist, a queen (anghya) of the village.

  • The tools of the Kalinga warrior, spear and head-axe. Pictured here is the late WWII veteran Jaime Alos of Dananao village, who was tattooed after fighting Japanese forces in 1945. The two horns extending outward from his abdomen symbolize the strength of the water buffalo (carabao) and designate his rank as a war captain. #kalinga#kalingatattoo #philippines #batok#veterans #warriors #elder #hero #tattoos#indigenous #portrait #travel#travelphotography #traditionaltattoo#heritage #culture #blackworktattoo #buffalo
  • WWII veteran Pio Ongat, a Kalinga warrior from Dananao village who was tattooed after fighting Japanese forces in 1945. His chest tattoo (bikking) represents in abstract form the outstretched wings of the predatorial eagle, a creature that Kalinga warriors attempted to emulate on the battlefield by swooping down on their enemies before they realized they were in mortal danger. #kalinga #kalingatattoo #philippines #batok #veterans #warriors #elder #hero #tattoos #indigenous #portrait #travel #travelphotography #traditionaltattoo #heritage #culture #blackworktattoo
