Coffin




The People of Sagada have a unique way of putting their dead to rest- coffins are carved out of a single log, then the body is pushed into the coffin and hung high on the limestone cliffs.
Who carves it? Why, The person to buried in it, of course. He will carve the Coffin out himself before he goes, or if he`s too weak to do it himself, assigns one of his closest relatives to do it for him
