This post was inspired by a trip to the museum in Cuenca, Ecuador, and a display of shrunken heads:

The Tale of the Shrunken Heads and Headhunters

Joanne, please put in the correct tags and categories. Please.

  Sorry, in my travels things seem to have changed here. My posts will continue to be listed on the reader, and I will leave it at that. I don’t wish to cause problems or offend.

    What problems or offend? What has changed? Tags were always encouraged to ensure that the posts could be found easily. That’s all I am reminding you of. Why is it a problem or being considered offensive now?

      I guess maybe I am using the forum in the wrong way. I am not asking for advice or specific feedback, I was just sharing a post. I’ll look at the rules again-perhaps I am just supposed to post in response to a weekly event or ask a question? I don’t mean to be difficult, but I am not sure how I should tag my posts, or why.

        Oh, if you are not asking for feedback then, there’s no feedback tag to be added. Sorry, I may have misunderstood. I thought you were asking for it, so feedback tag would ensure the post gets the attention it requires. If not, then my bad. In that case, this is perfect and yes, no tags required. There is a Members Post category but I’ll edit it at the back end, no worries. 🙂
        Yes, looking at the rules from time to time isn’t a bad thing 😉
        
        As to how and why is tagging helpful, this would be a good read to help you with that for you own blog too. 🙂
        Hope this helps 🙂

      I don’t think my post meets any of the “tag-able” categories:
      If you need help with something tag your post with #help. That way it won’t get lost.
      If your problem is resolved, change the #help to #resolved.
      If you’re looking for feedback, use the #feedback tag.
      If you have an idea for the community, use the #idea tag.
      All other chatter doesn’t need a tag. Feel free to add some if you’d like though.

        I know what the tags are , thank you! I’ve replied to your earlier comment. 🙂 Hope that clears my position. 🙂

I don’t know about the tagging but the post was great! I particularly liked the ‘civilising and christianising Spanish heroes’… 🙂 although that’d be because I find the Spanish conquistadors very interesting. The heads are gruesome though. I remember seeing them in the museum in Madrid and in London in the Wellcome Collection, and I remember I simply couldn’t have a good look… I just couldn’t bear keeping my eyes on them long enough! (The kids thought the shrunken heads were fascinating of course.) But then I’m not that keen on mummies either!
