About this work

Description

Pustaha.

Physical description

Two wooden covers with engraved designs, on one side the eight points of the compass, on the other a human figure in a kind of bathing-suit that clearly shows the recent date of this copy.; Material: unknown; 29 leaves.; leaf dimensions: width 8 cm, height 10.5 cm

Hand note

It was very neatly copied by a medicine-man who lived in a Karo-Batak village called Ujung. A few scribbled drawings in pencil are very late additions, and have nothing to do with the text.
