Ma'nene in Toraja

The body of Markus Tombang who died in 2016 at age 64 is taken out by family members for 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.
