Lontar Palm text
 
7 Attachment(s)
I recently acquired a lontar scribe's knife and so went looking for an interesting example of a text. The seller's description was the following:

"Sanskrit Palm Leaf Manuscript Abduction of Sita, Battle of Rama and Ravana. Hand printed and drawn. It is 10" wide. When opened it is about 15" long. It has been restrung. "

I am wondering if it might be from Bali. Comments?

Yes, for sure.
