Despite only arriving in New Guinea 40,000years ago, humans were soon established throughout the island's maze1 of hidden valleys.
Today, these people are known as Papuans, andtogether speak over 700 different languages - more than any other island onEarth.
Yet, despite their mastery of the island, therewas one creature they lived in awe2 of - the giant man-eating crocodile. 
Even today, young men must endure a brutalinitiation ceremony, in the belief that they will acquire the strength and guile3 of these giant reptiles4. 
THEY MARCH AND CHANT
The chief shaman calls out to the crocodilegods, asking for their blessing5 and protection.
The tribesmen form the sinuous6 shape of amoving crocodile. 
At the rear, the crocodile's tail, a courtjester lightens the mood.
