Instead of burying, they even put the corpse had been placed in a wooden crate into a large stone which has been perforated. The stones are usually very large and perforated at the sides to the size of the crate. For a large stone is usually occupied for many funerals, which are usually placed at rather high. And along with the corpse crates are placed / inserted into the hole without any funeral rites.

What is interesting here is the fact that all of the bodies are still cared for by the family or relatives. Every few years, the coffin and the corpse will be issued by the family to be cleaned, such as replacing the blanket on the crate and also to cleanse the body of the corpse and replacing the clothes she was wearing. It is as a form of appreciation to the family members of the family. This ritual is known as Ma 'Nene'.

And what makes hair stand is that the news was heard that there are certain rituals in Tana Toraja are able to make the corpse comes to life and runs itself. According to the news sounds, this ritual is usually performed when someone dies in a place away from home.
