Roadside shrines appear on various highways to commemorate where people have died in accidents. This shrine is filled with descriptive artifacts that include a toy motorcycle, an unopened bottle of beer, Mardi Gra beads, color photos and Honda logos. Obviously only part of the story. The concept of the roadside shrine dates back to paleolithic time. Early shrines were linked to the worship of pagan gods and provided travelers with a place to rest or worship.
