In Toraja there is a ritual or habit in the funeral procession. Quite unique and, perhaps creepy because of the corpse that had been laid for years on a high cliff and a stone grave, suddenly his body rises ... The corpse then goes looking for his house. Arriving home, he will sleep again. Story of this walking corpse has been known to the Toraja community since ancient times. Until now the ritual is still there and can be seen with the naked eye. Thin misty blanketed the Balla Mountains, District Baruppu, Tana Toraja, South Sulawesi. In the middle of the houses,residents held a ritual. They call it: Ma'nene. A ritual to commemorate the deceased ancestors, relatives and friends of taulan. From here the cultural mystery of Tana Toraja terkuak.An old woman seen surrounded by citizens. Everyone was looking serious. Who is she? I have no idea. Judging from the back, he was about 60-70 years old. Very old. Her hair was bushy. Her hair is overgrown with gray hair. In no way to move. His hands were crossed forwards. The old lady wore her favorite outfit: blue. Her whole skin looked tangled. There is a brownish white color. It seems he used to havea fire so his skin became so. The strange, though surrounded by dozens of people, the woman remained unmoved. Sculpt. Not turning or talking. After being approached, nature, it turns out he is a corpse!
