The Lord of the Flies is the bloody, detached pig's head that Jack pierces on a stake in the forest, as an offering to the beast. This symbol becomes the most important image in the novel, especially when Simon confronts the pig head in the glade. The pig's head seems to speak to Simon and tells him that evil lies within every human, and it promises to have "fun" with him. The Lord of the Flies is the physical appearance of the beast and a symbol of evil. The book makes references to The Bible where the Lord of Flies recalls a kind of Satan figure. On the other hand, Simon recalls Jesus.
