Description

Postcard showing funerary effigies carved into a cliff in Lemo, Indonesia. The printed text explains that the Torajas, inhabitants of the island of Celebes, practice complex funeral rituals where wooden effigies symbolize the spirit of the deceased. The reverse mentions that although these ceremonies have been touched by modernity, they retain their grandeur and ritual character.
