    Indonesia's Stonehenge

    5 de abril de 2024, Indonésia ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C

    Ancient Toraja didn't place Tau-Taus to commemorate the dead. Instead they embedded menhirs or standing stones in the ground. At Kalimbuang Bori there are 102 menhirs placed in circles representing important people who have died. Because of the presence of this ancient stone, the Kalimbuang site is said to be Toraja's Stonehenge. It's actually more like standing stone circles across the UK and Europe. Stonehenge is much more sophisticated than this.
    The Toraja still use this site for funeral ceremonies.
    After seeing this we drove down the mountains with more spectacular views to the east coast and to Sengkang.
