Hi Hanggoye.. Yup agreed, initially might have looked something like yours..

attached: a makara hilt on a mid 19th Century, badek from Pattani.
Although not the same form, here showing a variant of a makara hilt form. This example have a langkasukan motif, a swirling foliage, at the ear area, (behind the eyes).. which is a feature on many tajong hilts..
