[See Here: It May Look Like A Temple Of Torture, But This Tower Serves A Unique Purpose]

Zoroastrians don't believe in burying or cremating their dead. While mafia bosses poetically feed their victims to the fishes, these people believe that it's right and wholesome to feed their dead to the birds.

But you can't drop the soon-to-be-bird-food bodies of your loved ones just anywhere. To solve that problem, the Zoroastrians created something called the Tower of Silence. These towers may resemble Ronan the Accuser's torture chamber, but you can rest assured that everyone in the Tower of Silence is already dead.
