Last month my family and I went to Toraja to attend Grandpa’s funeral. It was my first time to go to
such a ceremony. We gathered there with our kin in the ceremony.

Overall, the ceremony was quite elaborate. It took about a week. Several days before the ceremony
was done, grandpa’s body was kept in a series of houses arranged in a circular row around an open
field called tongkonan. His corpse was dressed in a fine wearing.

The funeral was performed in two phases. First, we slaughtered the pigs and buffaloes, and then
moved the corpse to face north. In this ceremony we wore black clothes. After that, the corpse was
placed in a sandal wood coffin. Then, it was brought out of the house and placed on an open
platform beneath the granary.

Meanwhile, my uncle, my brother, and I prepared the wooden puppet and a funeral tower called
lakian. The next phase of the ceremony was held in this place. The coffin is borne from the house
and placed in the lakian. During the day, there were also buffalo matches. They were great matches.
In the night, we were feasting, chanting, and dancing.
