Whether this thing of the Sikh tree mark is a fantasy i ignore, but it is not uncommon to see this allusion in various sources out there. In any case, this mark appears in several examples, apparently always 'stamped' in three equally divided places of the quoid. There must be an explanation for the origin of this habit, even if not a preponderant one.
