Default Unknown Wooden Keris Hilt


Can some experts on this site give me some information about the keris hilt, pictures attached, representing a Praying Figure Seated on 5 Skulls, bought some days ago ?
What does it represent : an ancestor seated on his family' skulls. a God of Death, a warrior challenging his defeated enemies ? What wood is it; by the way not heavy. How old could it be ? Where is it from ?
I will be glad to have your opinion about this piece. Other pictures are available on request.Thanks in advance for your time.
