I was thinking the same as Kai. I was also thinking of the centipede.

Well, both are possible but which of those 2 options would it be. Hopefully an expert will come to this thread who can provide convincing evidence of what it really is. By the way, I have seen the motif on multiple Dayak objects.

Good day Godfried,
It is for the first time i saw mandau sheath like that, i meant it for the anatomy of the sheath not the carving. A full picture of the sheath will be better. |
