When Jack and his tribe kill the pig they stick the pigs head on a spear and put it in the clearing as an offering to "the beast". They do not know that the beast is actually a part of them and not a physical being.

What is the lord of flies?

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.
