REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: The six birds in the lower tier of the ship may represent peacocks although the diamond terminals normally seen at the end of the upright tail feathers are absent [Gittinger 1972:99-102]. See entry for X76.1365 for background information on "tampan" and "pelepai" textiles from Lampung, Sumatra.
