Southwest
SOUTHWEST Buntupune: 2 km. An old traditional village.Mandoe: 6 km, right
off the main highway. Guesthouse. One km from Mandoe at Alang Alang there's
good fishing from the bridge.Salu: 15 km. There are good places to swim
near a bamboo bridge over the river flowing through this village. Siguntu:
A traditional, seldom visited village. Nice rice barns and a great view
looking out towards Singki and Rantepao (although you can't actually see
Rantepao).SOUTH:Dulang: 8 km. Old graves, tau tau (statues).Pa'baisenan:
8 km. Graves of children in a large tree. If a child dies before teething,
his coffin is hung in a tree.Singki Hill: In the south part of Rantepao.
Turn 100 m after the crossroads and just head for the big rock. A short
but precipitous climb. See the whole of Rantepao from the top.EAST :Marante:
6 km. A very typical Torajan village with graves and old statues.Nanggala:
15 km. 14 traditional rice barns, the best you'll see. Besides serving
the function of storing rice (on the 2nd floor), these buildings are also
used for ceremonies. Guests are received on the first floor. They'll ask
for a donation.Tandung: 17 km. A most spectacular area with pine forests,
18 m high bamboo, and a gorgeous lake.NORTH:Bori: A good rante (circle
of megaliths) place for funeral ceremonies.Palawa': 9 km. An old village.Pangli:
7 km. A stone statue here has the likeness of a dead man, one Pong Massangka,
carved on it. Parinding: 7 km. Old houses. Nice walk to here and back
to Rantepao.Sa'dan: A village and weaving center. Go past the woman in
the first house on the right after the bridge. Her prices for cloth are
nearly the same as in Rantepao and she'll even try to charge you for looking
at a loom. Go instead 2 km uphill to Tenun where you can actually see
the weavers at work. They'll bring out the real old fabrics, shawls, and
family heirlooms. Bargain as if you don't want it (even if you do).

we must point out a very important distinction which the Balinese make between
two clearly separate groups of ancestors. The first of these groups consists
of the dead who are riot yet completely purified. This group is in turn subdivided
in pirata, those riot yet cremated, and pitara, those already cremated. The
former are still completely impure; the latter have been purified, but are still
considered as distinct, individual souls. The second group consists of the completely
purified ancestors who are considered as divine.
No contact is sought with the pirata, the dead who have not yet been cremated.
Oil the contrary they are dangerous, Offerings must however be made for the
redemption of their souls.
