This Indonesian tribe chops off women's fingers when a beloved dies


One of them is a practice in the Dani Tribe of Indonesia where women's fingers are amputated. Each time a member of the family passes away, women's fingers are chopped off in a tradition called Ikipalin, reported Zee News. First, the fingers are tied firmly using a rope to stop blood circulation and avoid pain as much as possible. — Guardian.ngThe Dani Tribe strongly believes that the pain women feel during this process helps ease the pain of the deceased. Interestingly, the responsibility to reduce the dead ones' pain lies on women's shoulders and not men's.
