Watu Pinawetengan

Watu Pinawetengan is an interesting megalithic stone because of its unique form and scripts. It is located in Tompaso sub-district, at the foot of Mount Soputan, Minahasa, or some 60 kilometers from Manado. According to Minahasa history and archaeological research, this stone is the place where the ancestors first divided up the land among nine sub-ethnics in Minahasa. This stone is four meters long and two meters tall. It looks like a bending person but some said it looks like Minahasa island. This natural stone has hand-made scripts. These scripts show human, human genitals, and lines without any clear meaning.
