Kai, I used the word "consideration".
In other words:- "think about this"
You, in your wisdom, and from your broad base of experience have been able say that without the slightest shadow of a doubt, this insignificant little piece of carved horn could not possibly have come from Sumatera.
I absolutely accept that this is your opinion.
I am not pushing any opinion at all on this item of Detlef's.
Please do not confuse keris in general with other items of material culture from S.E. Asia, such as tools & weapons. We cannot even mix keris with other items of tosan aji.
