Sacrifice in Lac Toba

Here are photos of where human sacrifices took place in Danau Toba... Quite scary... We had an old lady explaining us how they first cut your cheek off and then brake all your bones before cutting your head off... Argh.... The King and Queen were present of course as they were the ones who would then have the privilege of eating the feast with other important chiefs ....Apparently they sacrificed the worst warrier (poor guy!)

We were terrorized: felt obligated to buy stuff off them so they wouldn't eat US!

The "Stone Chairs' where it all took place:


The stones on which the sacrifice was laid:


The King and the Queen...
