Ma'nene in Toraja

Family members put back the coffins containing the body of their dead relatives back in the tomb after cleaning and grooming.

Ma'nene is a tradition that takes place in August after harvest where the bodies of the dead loved ones are exhumed to be cleaned, groomed and dressed. For most, it's a bittersweet moment, a chance to reunite and physically see and touch and reconnect with loved ones who had passed on.
