Thanks Detlef. From feedback i am getting on a couple of tosan aji facebook pages from collectors who are indigenous to the Indonesian area i am getting a different response. Many there do not seem to make the distinction and considered both to be Tumbok Lada . That is not to say that you are incorrect. Simply pointing out the differences in how academics of European descent view these categorical differences compared to the locals.
