REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Single panel of cloth, decorated with supplementary weft, beadwork, and a band near each end executed in a wrapped warp tapestry technique. This cloth very closely matches the description of a "parompa sadum" given in Gittinger 1975:28. The cloth described is from the Angkola Batak people. "Parompa" are the class of "ulos" used as a carrying sling for children.
