PROBOLINGGO, Indonesia: Thousands of Hindu worshippers scaled an active Indonesian volcano on Monday to toss livestock, food and other offerings into its smoking crater in a centuries-old religious ceremony.
Slamet, a 40-year-old farmer who like many Indonesians goes by only one name, brought a baby cow as an offering."We have a lot of cows back home and this one can be considered excess, so we are bringing it here ... to return it back to God," he told AFP. Some villagers who do not belong to the Tengger tribe took to the crater's steep slopes equipped with nets in an attempt to intercept offerings thrown into the abyss and avoid them going to waste.Farmer Joko Priyanto brought some of his own produce in the form of cabbages and carrots to lob down into the smoky void.Monday's ritual was the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic that authorities had allowed tourists to the site after the festival was limited to worshippers last year.
