This clan lived in the forest and cared for the animals and helped find them food. In return the animals guarded the clan. The image depicted here is of Siboru Parema feeding a lion. Vessels such as this have been used by Batak people to hold medicine. This container is a small version of what was originally carved and used by a household.
