Pig toilet

Model of toilet with pigsty (China, Eastern Han dynasty 25–220 AD).

A pig toilet (sometimes called a "pig sty latrine") is a simple type of dry toilet consisting of an outhouse mounted over a pigsty, with a chute or hole connecting the two. The pigs consume the feces of the users of the toilet, as well as other food.

The pigs raised on human excrement are subsequently used as human victuals which can raise health concerns.[1]
