Pandan war: Two Tenganan males fight using thorny pandanus leaves and rattan shields during a battle as part of a Makare-Kare ritual at Tenganan Pengringsingan village, Karangasem in Bali on June 8, 2012. The Makare-Kare ritual is held to honor the Hindu God of War. Tenganan Pengringsingan is home to a community that traces its lineage back to pre-Hindu times, and that strictly adheres to a traditional life of rituals and ceremonies. (JP/Agung Parameswara)
