- General Note:
- Pustaha is the magic book of the Toba Batak people of North Sumatra, Indonesia. The book contains magical formulas, divinations, recipes, and laws. The pustaha is written and compiled by a Batak magician-priest (datu). -- Wikipedia
- General Note:
- Pustaha adalah sebuah buku atau surat dalam budaya Batak yang berisi catatan pengobatan tradisional, ilmu-ilmu gaib, keterangan tentang cara menolak hal-hal yang jahat (poda), mantra, ramalan-ramalan baik yang baik maupun yang buruk, serta ramalan mimpi. Buku ini biasa ditulis dengan aksara Batak. Secara fisik, pustaha terdiri dari lampak (sampul) dan laklak (kulit kayu sebagai media penulisan). -- Wikipedia
- General Note:
- Written on one side only, rather than more commonly both sides of the bark. The text may be incomplete.
- General Note:
- The script is peculiar in that, in order to denote a closed syllable, in addition to the pangolat, a small horizontal dash is sometimes (but not always) added above the final consonant.
- General Note:
- Labeled: "Batak book of charms"
