Bada Valley Megaliths

Palindo, Torompana, Tarae Roe, and Loga are some of the names given by locals to the ancient statues in the Bada Valley [1]. The megalithic statues in the Bada Valley represent human faces that have been stylized, where the eyebrows and nose are depicted as one, while the mouth is omitted [1]. The statues in the Bada Valley generally have clear gender markers [1]. On the Palindo and Meturu statues, male genitalia are carved [1]. On the Langke Bulawa statue, female genitalia are depicted [1]. Kalamba are artifacts in the form of large jars with lids, 1.5-2 meters in diameter, used for burial, found in the Bada Valley [1].
