Hello David,

No, I've meant Straits Bugis. I guess that your example is indeed from the Sumatran East coast. I would be more with Anthony and think that my example is more Bugis.
Here is an interesting old discussion about this thematic: http://www.vikingsword.com/vb/showth...hlight=straits

Regards,
Detlef
