REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: Although not from the Kauer area, the Krui coast or the Liwa area, the "V" shapes in this textile appear to be an extremely stylized version of the confronting animals characteristic of Gittinger's Group 4 [Gittinger 1972:103-106, Plates 21-28]. See entry for X76.1365 for background information on "tampan" and "pelepai" textiles from Lampung, Sumatra.
