How to make a Jivaro Shrunken Head

* Remove head.

* Make a slit from the back of the head to the crown of the head.

* Separate the fleshy part of the face and the top of the head from the skull. (Skull may be thrown in river to placate Anaconda god.)

* Turn face inside out and scrape all fatty tissue off.

* Place the head into a pot of simmering water (do not boil, or hair may fall off).

* Simmer until head is about two thirds natural size.

* Sew back of neck, eyes and lips closed with plant fiber.

* Heat small pebbles in fire and place in head, constantly moving.

* When head is too small for pebbles use hot sand.

* Dye head blue-black with plant dyes.

* While heating, continuously mold face to keep the look of its original owner as much as possible.

* Use heated knife to dry and shrink lips.

* Wear around neck.
