House on stilts of the Toraja people sent on January 30, 2018 (10:42) by Orolf. 0 comments, 273 views.

, ISO 100,

casa tradizionale su palafitte, con le tradizionali incisioni su legno. Appesi sulla facciata i palchi di corna di tutti i bufali sacrificati per i funerali dei familiari: maggiore è il numero di bufali uccisi e maggiore il loro valore (quelli albini arrivano a valere fino 15-20000€) e tanto più il defunto progredirà nella sua ascesa al paradiso. Si notano alcuni crani umani, forse recuperati dalla tomba dei parenti, forse di nemici uccisi (la guida ci ha fatto capire che in passato venissero sgozzati e forse addirittura mangiati dando ancor più prestigio al defunto..). Anche se in alcuni testi sono descritti come eredi di tagliatori di teste, i Toraja mi sono sembrati uno dei popoli più miti, legati alle tradizioni, sorridenti e disponibili che abbia mai incontrato nei miei 20 anni di viaggi.
