Both seem to be important figures in sea going cultures.
What is the legend behind the carvings on Detlef's wrongko?

Hello Gav,
Frankly said I don't seeing a bird nor a crocodile, I see a wing, yes, but I suppose it's either the Kuda Sembrani (a winged horse, said to coming from the Keraton Suminep) or Garuda, both symbols you can find also in front of some Donoriko hilts, see attached pictures.
Regards,
Detlef
