"Batak people eat people?"
Surely you will be surprised to hear this statement. This is not an expression or sarcasm if we interpret it with a tone or sound accent of Batak people who are known to be healthy and seem angry. Eating the person in question is undoubtedly cannibalism; humans eat humans in real sense.
In addition to its beautiful nature, South Sumatra is also known for its variety of new cultures, and it turns out that one of the different tribes of the country has a creepy tradition. They had had the tradition of cannibals, and the evidence of the matter was still guarded until now in Huta Siallagan.
Huta Siallagan is an ancient Batak village located in Simanindo, Samosir Island, North Sumatra. The location is very strategic because it is surrounded by the beautiful scenery around the area of? Lake Toba. However, besides that, the cultural heritage in it is also fascinating to listen to.
The tradition has indeed been lost, but some have not disappeared from the history of cannibalism. That is the village of Huta Siallagan which still exists to maintain stories and relics that reveal the truth of Marco Polo's memoirs and Missionaries.
