septcephalic

Snakes alive!—a septcephalic snake!

Hundreds of people, including many devout Hindus, flocked to the banks of Elevuka Creek, near the township of Ba, on Viti Levu, Fiji’s main island, early in December after local people reported seeing a seven headed snake.

The reports said the snake appeared from a hole, reared into the air, then disappeared.

A devout Hindu group made offerings of camphor, tamarind, flowers, milk and coconuts and sang incantations in an effort to charm the creature into view again.

Hindus at the site said the snake was a divine incarnation.
