520 3 |a This manuscript is arranged concertina style, the volume bound between two leather pieces. -- It comes from Southern Thailand, the script executed in a style typical of the reign of King Chulalongkorn (r. 1868-1910). Manuscripts of this type were used by astrologers in prediction ceremonies. Each page tells a different story: here Rāma’s brother, Phra Laksmana kills the demonness by cutting off her hand. Other scenes are from the tale of the Prince Chantakorop, whose beloved Mora failed to save him from the gibbon’s sword, and the Suvannahamsa Jataka, the golden goose whose feathers turn to those of a crane when over-plucked. (Text by John T. Carpenter and Yoshiko Yasumura, from the exhibition catalogue: Objects of instruction : treasures of the School of Oriental and African Studies, Anna Contadini, Editor. London : SOAS, University of London, 2007.)
