DURGA Hilt?

If not locally known as Durga in the recent past, does that mean it is not a representation of what Durga is? would it be concidered correct to be brazen about a Hindu image?

This is quite interesting, the "Historical Perspective" seems to suggest that in some ways Durga is still present.

A more earthly approach?

I hope this is more earthly approach too. A hilt that was made three weeks ago by a young hilt-maker, Gatot Kamijo from Imogiri, Yogyakarta. A "durga inspired" hilt I commissioned to him, two days for finishing it...
