Tree Graves: Babies buried in tree trunks...


seeder

Recommended Posts

Ok this is weird and very bizarre!!

The tree graves of Indonesia where dead babies are ‘buried’ inside the trunks of growing plants so they can be ‘absorbed’ by nature

The ritual takes place in the remote regency of Tana Toraja, a mountainous region of South Sulawesi in Indonesia

Villagers hollow out holes in living trees before wrapping their dead infants in cloth and sealing them inside

The corpse is believed to be absorbed over the years and dozens of children can be interred in each of the trees

surely being buried without a coffin allows for better absorption? And quicker Id imagine
