最近有三篇文章研究了与婆罗洲和弗洛雷斯的建筑祭祀有关的猎头和绑架谣言。本文提供了关于弗洛雷斯和印度尼西亚其他地方的此类谣言的进一步信息，这在很大程度上证实了他们的解释。然而，有人认为，这些谣言不是一种新现象和殖民时代的产物，而是印度尼西亚自古以来的特点，通常与政治和军事权力机构有关。世纪以来，荷兰人在梭罗群岛附近的政策和活动，可能强烈地增强了人们的怀疑，即他们有能力通过当地代理人夺取人头。
Three recent articles have examined head-hunting and kidnapping rumors in connection with construction sacrifice on Borneo and Flores. This paper presents further information on such rumors on Flores and elsewhere in Indonesia which largely confirms their interpretations. However, the argument is made that rather than being a new phenomenon and a product of the colonial era, these rumors may well have been characteristic of Indonesia from ancient times and have typically been associated with offices of political and military potency. Policies and activities of the Dutch near the Solor islands since the seventeenth century may have strongly reinforced suspicions that they were capable of taking heads through local agents.
