A relative of Nene Datu who passed away in 1982 snaps a selfie of Nene Datu, Yuanita (right) and Jambang (left). Nene Datu will be burried later on together with her dauthter Polina (died 2nd), and Dani (died 3rd) all together in the same coffin. Ma'Nene is always a good occasion for younger relatives to meet their ancestors for the first time - and of course, to take some selfies with them. While post mortem photography is a disappearing culture (or already lost culture) within most developed countries, in certain parts of Toraja this tradition has been be preserved well over the years.
