REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: "Kain panjang" [="long cloth"]; worn as a wrap-around lower garment. "Tulis" or hand drawn batik. Central Javanese style batik. Accession sheet identifies pattern as a variation of the pattern known as "semen", but the basis for this classification is not clear [see Elliott 1984:68-69]. The winged motif appears to be bats rather than birds as stated on accession sheet.
