Hi Usmen, I'll have a go-tunggak semi? (tree sprout) But could it be raja gundala?-looks like a howling wolf sat on his haunches..

These types of pamor are quite subjective and suggestive...
First look... from the outer silhouette, looks like a woman wearing a headgear, sitting down... left hand supporting her posture, while a baby on her lap.
Lemmy, I see what you see too...

What did the maker create, and what has been created by time and the hand of God?

The maker had a name for the motif he created.

Does man have the right to name a motif created by God?

Hi,

Its the "almost burned out candle" motif. This pamor signifies that the time is near and we should perform good while the candle is still burning. hehe.. just kidding guys..

Some pamor did not turn out what the maker wants it to be. Pak Raden, for this I will call in generally pamor tiban, specifically tunggak semi. With sighting of rojo gundolo.
