"A family in Indonesia hold up the mummy of a relative after giving him new clothes in a ritual in Tana Toraja, Sulawesi Island. The ritual, called ma’nene, involves changing the clothes of mummified ancestors every three years to honour the dead. There is a similar ritual in Madagascar, called famadihana (literally 'the turning of the corpses'), which occurs every five to seven years."[1]
