EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us deep into the heart of the Cave of Skulls and Bones, a haunting archaeological site that holds secrets from centuries past. Located in Kabayan Town, nestled within the majestic Cordillera Mountains in Benguet Province, Luzon, Philippines, this cave burial site is a testament to ancient customs and traditions. Dating back 500-1000 years ago, this mass burial ground offers a glimpse into the lives and deaths of those who once inhabited these lands. The image captures the eerie beauty of the cave's interior as it showcases an array of skulls and bones scattered across its floor. Each relic tells a story - stories lost to time but preserved through archaeology. The photographer skillfully portrays both the historical significance and contemporary fascination surrounding death rituals in this part of Southeast Asia. The color image brings out intricate details while emphasizing the solemnity that permeates every corner of this sacred space. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded not only of our mortality but also of our connection to those who came before us. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in death, there is beauty to be found – beauty that transcends time and culture. Christian Kober/Robert Harding has masterfully captured an image that transports us to another era; inviting contemplation on life's fragility while celebrating humanity's enduring spirit.
