<p>[QUOTE="JohnNL, post: 317219, member: 6438"]This oval cylinder shaped container/box i bought together with some decorated dayak bamboo tubes and 2 dayak poison blowpipe containers. Don't know the material, ratan?, except for the carved wooden bit. So the top of the lid is open! So what could it have been used for? Any ideas? And although i think it probably is: is it Dayak? And who knows, maybe even a further specification?</p><p>The container is about 14 cm high. I didn't detect anything to tie it to, for instance, your waist. There are also no traces of anything it contained. Sorry only one picture, but it's a box, so the lid comes off. </p><p>I'll add a picture of the other tubes as circumstantial 'evidence'. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> I think they are Ngaju Dayak.</p><p>In the same batch also a little (12,5 cm high) double basket (1 as a lid) woven from very fine plant material. I'll also add that pic. Can someone confirm that this is also Dayak, mayby?
