The rondavel's walls are often constructed from stones. The mortar may consist of sand, soil, or some combinations of these mixed with dung.

Korowai Tree House

Until the 1970s, they were unaware of the existence of any people besides themselves and some immediately neighboring villages. Only a few of them have become literate thus far. They are one of the few surviving peoples in the world that are thought to possibly still engage in cannibalism. Others dispute this, saying that these practices ended decades ago and that there have been no reported instances of cannibalism in over twenty years.
