This picture deserves an explanation. The trunk on the right side belongs to 
the "children tree". 
When a baby is born dead or a child dies in the early days, people make a 
hole in the trunk of a large tree, where it is placed the
small corpse. 
With the growth of the tree, the child finally will reach heaven, as if had 
lived a full life.

C&C welcome.
Regards,
Marc
