Jack put the sow's head on the stick..... he told the others it was a gift (sacrifice) for the beast.

Jack held up the head and jammed the soft throat down on the pointed end of the stick which pierced through into the mouth. He stood back and the head hung there, a little blood dribbling down the stick.

“This head is for the beast. It’s a gift.”
