REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: "Kamben" signifies an outerwear hip wrap cloth. "Kamben cepuk" are a particular style of weft ikat cloths, well known in Bali where they are put to a variety of ceremonial uses. They are best known as part of the costume of the witch Rangda, who symbolizes evil in Balinese mythology and theater. They are also used as offerings in a ceremony for a newborn, to turn away dangerous powers from adolescents at the time of thier tooth filing ceremony, and at purification ceremonies for the dead. They additionally serve as temple decorations and offerings to devine powers. "Kamben cepuk" are generally associated with manufacture on the offshore island of Nusa Penida, although they were also made in other parts of Bali. A "kamben cepuk" from Nusa Penida with the same motif is illustrated in Gittinger 1979:plate 106. No matter where they were made, "kamben cepuk" were valued for use all over Bali.
