For Wampar (Morobe Province) use of the pejorative term stonhet (not in 
Mihailic- "meaning 'stonehead', that is, a person whom it is not possible 
to change or educate",
see Bettina Beer's fascinating new paper
( 2006. "Stonhet and Yelotop : Body Images, Physical Markers and 
Definitions of Ethnic Boundaries in Papua New Guinea". Anthropological 
Forum, 16(2), 105-122.)
