A megalith heritage in the form of a Kalamba (large pots) standing firmly in Pokekea Site, Hangira village, Lore Tengah district, Poso regency, Central Sulawesi, Sunday (17/9). It is estimated that the ancient object in the area known as Behoa valley was made in 2,700 BC.

A bright blue color adorned the sky above the vast grassland that morning. Birds chirped, welcoming the new day, along with the soft wind that brought people to memories of the past. In Behoa Valley, images of the past were reflected from the various megalithic structures.

The kalamba, standing 190 centimeters tall with a diameter of 160 cm and a depth of 90 cm, welcomed visitors to the Pokekea Megalithic Site. Kalamba, in Lore language, which is the language of people in Behoa Valley, means the vessel of the spirit.
