Interesting theory; I had to look the name "Makara," up to understand your reference.

I think interested party is spot on. It must be some form of trishula used in religious festivals, shame it is broken.

I'm not sure about the trishula reference; isn't that a 3 pronged trident?

Ankus for sure. I don't see anything Indian, but there are some Buddhist art features of Southeast Asia.
