Piggy.
Percival Wemys Madison (one of the littluns) first says the beast comes from the water.
In "Lord of the Flies," the beast is said to inhabit the jungle during the day. The littlun describes it as a creature that hides in the treetops and comes out at night.
It was homage to the beast and this, being the Lord of the Flies later, is related to the devil. Lord of the flies in Hebrew has a similar name to Beelzebub, which is the devil. It signifies that the devil is all part of us, when he says he is part of them to Simon during one of his seizures.

Piggy is the one who said, on page 84, "Life....is scientific that's what it is."
Simon is the one who converses with the pig's head, known as the Lord of the Flies, about the nature of the beast. The Lord of the Flies represents the evil and darkness within each individual, which Simon realizes during their conversation.
In "Lord of the Flies," when one character says "You're a beast and a swine and a bloody, bloody thief" to another, it represents the breakdown of society and the descent into savagery on the island. This quote highlights the characters' loss of humanity and their transformation into violent and brutal beings as they struggle for power and survival.
There are many different symbolic images inThe Lord of the Flies, but the Lord of the Flies is a symbol himself. Towards the end of the novel when the Lord of the Flies speaks to Simon, is when his true symbolism comes out; the Lord becomes an indication of any type of beast and also a symbol of the power of evil. You could even take this answer as far as saying the Lord of the Flies symbolizes the devil whereas throughout the story, Simon portrays Jesus Christ (Biblical parallelism).Beelzebub, or a satanic/demonic representaion
In "Lord of the Flies," the character Simon is the one who converses with the pig's head, also known as the Lord of the Flies. The pig's head symbolizes the evil inherent in all human beings and speaks to Simon's inner fears and thoughts about the nature of the beast.
Both Piggy and Simon deny the existence of a physical "beast" on the island. However, Simon believes that though not physical, there is a beast. Such a beast is the one that is inside all of the boys, and is inside all those of humans. The innate evil of mankind.
In the Lord of the Flies movie, there is a representation of the "beast" in the form of a severed pig's head on a stake, named the Lord of the Flies. The beast symbolizes the darkness within the boys and the savagery that emerges as their situation on the island deteriorates.
Simon suggests that they should go up the mountain and face the beast, but the other boys do not agree with him in Chapter 5 of "Lord of the Flies". Simon's suggestion highlights his bravery and willingness to confront their fears, which contrasts with the other boys' reluctance and cowardice.
