 PELIATAN
– A rare cremation ceremony, called
"pelebon" took place at the Agung
Peliatan Palace in Ubud, Sunday (24/9).
This kind of cremation ceremony only takes
place once in a 5 – 10 year period.
The ceremony used a "bade" or
cremation tower with 9 levels and about
21 meters high, a white cow and "naga
banda" (dragon), because the deceased
person was the daughter-in-law of the Royal
Family of the Agung Peliatan Palace Kingdom,
Ubud- Gianyar. See page 6 ‘Ngaben’
at Pemecutan Palace, Denpasar. (BTN/primarta)
