Sulawesi Selatan - Torajaland - Makale - Lemo - Stone-carved burial site
A stone-carved burial site. Tau tau (effigies of the deceased) were put in the cave, looking out over the land.
There are three methods of burial: the coffin may be laid in a cave or in a carved stone grave, or hung on a cliff. It contains any possessions that the deceased will need in the afterlife. The wealthy are often buried in a stone grave carved out of a rocky cliff. The grave is usually expensive and takes a few months to complete. In some areas, a stone cave may be found that is large enough to accommodate a whole family.
