Pemotongan batok kepala

Pemotongan batok kepala adalah sebuah tindakan memotong atau menyayat bagian batok kepala, beserta dengan rambutnya, dari bagian kepala. Tindakan tersebut dapat dilakukan sebagai bagian dari perang dengan batok kepala dijadikan trofi,^[1] atau sebagai sebuah kecelakaan. Pemotongan batok kepala dianggap merupakan bagian dari praktik budaya yang lebih besar dari mengambil dan menyimpan bagian tubuh manusia sebagai trofi, dan dapat dikembangkan sebagai alternatif pemotongan kepala manusia, karena batok kepala lebih mudah untuk dipotong, dibawa dan disimpan. Pemotongan batok kepala secara terpisah berkembang dalam berbagai budaya di Dunia Lama dan Dunia Baru.^[2]
