Default Lantakas, Moro and otherwise

Greetings folks,

Just thought I'd share some articles on lantakas:

One is specifically on Moro small and mini-antakas and the other is on lantakas in the Malayian/Indonesian/Philippines region.


Enjoy!

Very good articles. The second one seems to have more historical precision, if i dare say.
Thanks much for sharing, José.

Two of those lantakas look like they could have been made in Borneo, Indonesia at least.

North Borneo was part of Malaysia and had strong ties to Singapore as well during the British period of rule.
