Product Description
It has now been nearly twenty-three years ago since we were called to do an estate that had been closed up for seventeen years!
The Voodoo Estate!
This type of call usually gets us excited as they are a treasure trove. Located here in Florida, there was no electricity or running water so we rigged our own lighting and in we went. If you have ever seen the Adams Family you will have some idea as to what we were greeted with! Then the attorney handling the liquidation gave us some background. The estate had belonged to an alleged powerful Voodoo Priestess/JooJoo Exorcist, grand daughter of a Marie Laveau, and favored daughter of a Marie Glapion.
Most of the items in this lot, the sword, box, skull, crystals and ring, are some of artifacts her journals attribute to, "Dihya of the Berber Magi's death camp" and are named as part of "the boon recovered as payment" for aiding a man she names as, "a Zoroastrian Mede Sorcerer Priest of disproportionate male endowment met in Egypt (1947)."
She goes on the tell us of the enhancement additions she and her associates added to the mix, the rainbow crystal gem eyes of the skull, the large gemstones, and phra yant prayer cloth, all of which were found together in the main wardrobe of her Master Suite which her journals and inventory go on to describe with a story right out of a B movie!
It is said he facilitated this disaster using egg shells to cast a spell, and certain folklore concerning egg shells corroborate this. He became a carpenter and furniture maker as did many of his descendants. This is another case of the multi-generational relationships we have encountered with this family as the LiDiex all had a strong association with these women.
Described as being "in excess of six feet of sinewy muscle, deceptively strong, easily matching two of his size in their grappling" and "extensively, shaved, tattooed and pierced" in addition to "shown to be capable of high magic without devices."
Both their journals claim his ability to heal wounds, shape shift, travel through time and space, telepath and create life with the power of his thought.
It is this LiDiex who is attributed with making her introduction to Alexandra David Neel and his journals tell of numerous meetings and short adventures with her. Claiming at the age of twenty four to have met Neel for the second time in the company of Prince Sidkeong of Sikkim and of being her teacher of the Tibetan language having already spent six years with the Great Hermit as apprentice.
Much is already written on these subjects, so there is no need to elaborate here in this already overly long listing, but we wholeheartedly recommend a cursory search for some very interesting reading.
~!~
Only a few pieces were found in this estate displaying this named, "Murmur Curse." The description of its application is akin to speaking and writing in tongues. No decipher is given in her journals and we have not yet been successful in translating all of them, but what we have been able to decipher of the ones contained in this mentioned bag are "breath, walk, run, obey, fight, death, kill, murder, slash, stab, burn, invisibility, strength, speed, skill, madness, jealousy, envy, suicide and phantom (described as a mist)."
This "curse" is originally attributed to the 1888 LiDiex and is later mentioned as being used by his associates, with what their journals note of, "carved stones, spelled to aid in this curse" being used. This, "Murmur Curse" they claim, was used to animate inanimate objects, as mentioned earlier of the skulls found on their "Resurrection Skull Altar" and the poppet dolls in the Murmur Curse Bags.
The curse would be murmured, while, with what can only be described as automatic writing, the murmur would be written on the object or objects to be animated or on accouterments, such as weapons or bags to carry them in. A number of these, "medicine bags" were found in this suite containing what looked like bizarre puppet or doll parts filled with the green calcite favored in these ceremonies. These "murmurings" were written on these parts, it's weapons and the inside of the bags.
She describes this murmur curse being used to animate these poppets to, "commit revenge murder" usually against ill wishers, claiming, "once animated they project into their unconscious thought causing the most destructive of dreams culminating in organ failure murder and suicide."
We uploaded the original 37 photographs of one of these bags to our photo hosting website for you to view. For those of you that do not know of it you can email us for additional picture links for a glimpse of one of these bags and its contents.
They are no longer in our possession so it is just for a glimpse at and into the bags;
~!~
These "doll parts" are said to have become "animated and cursed, using the desert sand and bits of cloth to make up the two bodies needed by these creatures".
Their journals alleging this LiDiex to have sent these, "thought created and animated creatures into the brigand camp, murdering and causing the marks to murder themselves to the last man and woman by dawn. The attack taking place at 3:00 am is relevant."
Once the task was completed she went with this LiDiex into the brigand camp to retrieve the Captain's head and those of their magician and his concubine, named as Dihya, along with whatever else they found of value including the poppet parts along with their weapons. "The task be done then back whence from," claiming the task done, their bodies returned to their original form, leaving the parts and weapons for this LiDiex to retrieve.
Here she writes of coming upon the mutilated headless bodies of the Magi and his mistress in the brigand camp and stripping them of anything she found of value. This sword, the dowry box containing the skull, the crystals and ring being among them. "They were found close at hand with the box open and the hands of their dismembereds corpses seemed to be reaching for it. There was much blood." She goes on to tell of taking the dismembered hands which she took possession of and later turned into candles to be used in exorcisms!
She also rifled through their tents taking maps and journals which named the owners and gave her some history of the things they took possession of post massacre.
The tale continues with the Father, the above mentioned Zoroastrian Mede Sorcerer Priest, being given the head of the brigand leader and a tour of the defeated brigand camp, claiming one hundred and thirty four victims.
Judging from the, "poppet parts" found in these bags, these created beings could not have been more than two feet tall!
Real or imagined, we do understand why she and the company she kept were as feared and respected as they were.

The Kit, it's Components and Commentary
Another of her entries tell us; "In recreating the scene, it appears the Magi, driven mad by our poppets, severed the hands of his own assistant preventing her laying them upon the skull to assist him in their defence. Lucky for us? Or skill at arms and magic remains to be seen. We now have these tools in our possession and all are anxious to experiment with them."
Tuareg Berber Magi'
Little, if anything else, other than what is printed here is known of this man. Her journals tell us "he dressed in black and rode a fiery black stallion" and the victim's father believed he had once had access to a djinn that had granted him the ability to assert his dominance over others. "She was beautiful while he had the face of a horse" is an entry that we assume is explained by that.

Swastika Blood Magic Murder Sword
Examination of the sword reveals it is assuredly a hand forged Berber blade that is essentially a Takuba with a modified blade. The right hand swastika crossguard is an immediate clue that this sword was not meant for traditional combat,Yet the sheath ends in a Turk's Head knot making the sheath an effective striking weapon in itself.
A small part of the hilt is not covered in leather, and they tell us this is intentional, as it is meant to cut the heel of the wielding palm just enough to draw blood and send it's energy up into the blade (shown below). "It is the iron in our blood that conducts this magic energy," according to one of her entries.
Sheathed, the sword measures approximately 32" in overall length with the right hand swastika crossguard measuring approximately 7 3/8" wide and weighing 2 lbs., 14 oz.. The sheath contains a matching 8.5" dagger with a 4 3/4" x 13/16" blade. The falchion styled sword blade measures approximately 22 1/2" in length x 1 3/4" wide
Takoba
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, for the most part..
Takoba (also takuba or takouba) is the sword that is used across the western Sahel and among ethnic groups such as the Tuareg, the Hausa, and the Fulani. It usually measures about one meter in length. Takoba blades are straight and double edged with a pronounced tapering from the guard towards the tip; they can exhibit several notable features, including three or more hand-ground fuller grooves and a rounded point.
Since the Tuareg have an aversion to touching iron, the takoba's hilt, like many iron implements, is fully covered. Typically the simple but deep crossguard is of iron sheet, or iron-framed wood, covered in tooled leather, and occasionally sheathed in brass or silver; the grip is also often leather-covered but the pommel is always of metal, often brass or copper, sometimes iron or silver. Alternatively the whole hilt can be covered in brass or silver sheathing. The scabbard is made of elaborately tooled leather. Geographical variations in the form of the hilt have been noted, but no rigorous typology has been established. Variations in the quality of blade and fittings on takobas probably mostly reflect the wealth of their owners.
There is much debate about whether the takoba was used only by the warrior class or whether it could be borne by vassals.
As with most crafted items used by the Tuareg, takoba are crafted by the ìnhæd caste, who are of a different ethnicity and speak Ténet, a secret language. They believe that they have magical powers, which some theorize to be associated with their traditional roles as metalworkers and to the aversion to both metalworking and touching iron.

The Dowry Box
The antique, cathedral lidded, wood and brass dowry box contained the quartz crystal skull, a silver ring, the small assortment of polished stones and two ounces of oudh incense when taken from the scene of the massacre.
Once back at the estate, she used all of the incense over time and added the five large gems and prayer cloth which are described in detail below. She indicates the box contained the Djinn which, although loyal to the Kahina, ultimately betrayed her due to some unknown power the Magi was able to assert over the Djinn, placing it in a near death state. They claim to have reversed and revived the occupying spirit where it is said to reside to this day.
The box is in overall excellent condition with signs of use, but no sign of damage or repair. There is no key.
It measures approximately 12 1/2" x 9 3/4" x 8 5/8" with the handle raised. It weighs 6 lbs., 7 oz.
There is a single lidded interior compartment along the left side and this is where the polished quarts stones and silver snake ring were found.
The box was assuredly made in India, the remnants of the paper tag affixed to the bottom was a dead giveaway there, but it has further deteriorated while in our custody and is barely discernible. Most likely circa 1900-1920.
There is no indication how the box and its contents came to be in the possession of the Kahina.
~!~
The Crystal Skull
A collection of crystal was recovered from the suite of the 1888 LiDiex. An assortment of thirty-seven natural and carved pieces of these rock quartz crystal pieces are attributed as being used by this LiDiex for "Meditative Blade Charging" and "for imparting spells to the blade" according to their journal entries.This collection and the practices associated with it, were developed and practiced long before the massacre, so it comes as no surprise that they immediately recognized this spell kit for what it was and laid claim to it and once again we find magical practices that seem to have crossed cultural and geographical borders.
These blade ceremonies, "where one's consciousness and that of the spelled blade become one" is noted in a number of their entries as described below in the commentary.
I have put these things to use and have successfully taught two others in their use with three times as many failures. They do work, but nothing is for nothing, especially in blood magic.
Some key notes from their journals state; "salt and colored light when charging" we used Himalayan salt lamps for this. Four from the LiDiex Suite and three of our own collection and from memory of the suite layout tried to recreate the lighting they describe for this."
They have called upon these tools and their knowledge which note of their performing these 'Blood Blade Crystal Meditations' which called for "blooding the skull during the spell."
Examination reveals a solid, one piece rock crystal skull carving of unknown origin with excellent clarity through approximately 20% of the skull. It displays numerous interior veils, areas of self healing and heat sensitive aurora borealis, or rainbow inclusions.
The skull is of fine cut and polish, measuring approximately 5 1/2" x 3 1/8" x 3 1/8" and weighing 3 lbs., 12 oz.
According to their journals, the skull was "given sight" during a ceremony celebrating the first successful use of the kit while making contact with the three spirits that occupy the sword, box and skull and welcoming them to the estate. It was at this time that the other gems and prayer cloth were enhancements they added, but more of that later (down below).
~!~
The Ring
We would have thought this to be a stylized letter S initial ring had it not been for their journals which describe it as a skinned cobra, readied for sacrifice! Apparently any snake will be an adequate offering, but it must be butchered and made into a food offering within twelve hours of attempting to use this kit. We believe she and the Magi were both snake eaters, on a regular basis.
It is unclear whether the ring was recovered from the box or from the Kahina's severed hand due to ledger damage. It makes sense to us that the ring would be stored in the inner compartment of the box, but that the Kahina had retrieved it from the box and may have put it on prior to the Magi being driven mad and severing her hands.
This is one of three hundred and two pieces of jewelry from this estate that are attributed as being, "death worn" from a colorful variety of sources, and she tells us numerous times in her journals that, "death worn, always reeks of the living imprint."
The Fifteen White Saudi Seer Divination Quartz Stones
Here again, there is no history of the fifteen polished white quartz stones (shown above) prior to their coming to this estate. Our resident and associated experts seem to agree that they originated in Saudi Arabia. Once acclimated to their new home they were spoken of as "White Saudi Seer Divination Quartz Stones" which they felt were best used on the Ma Saep Nang Phra Sant Yant Sex Dream Ritual Cloths found throughout this estate, one of which she placed in the box for their use and like their other contributions will soon be described in detail below.
The fifteen stones have a combined weight of 4.25 oz. (118.9 grams)
~!~
The Five Gems
Her journals and inventory tell us she and the LiDiex were responsible for choosing the five large gemstone they used to enhance this kit during a 1964 ritual ceremony. All were taken from their own collections.
The Rainbow Quartz Gems/Ma-Na-Ta-Ka Vapor Valley Crystal
Her journals and inventory also tell us these 17.4625 x 14.2875 mm x 9.375 mm, 12.33 ct., faceted oval cut Rainbow Quartz Crystal gems used to give this skull vision were cut from crystal she names as, "a Ma-Na-Ta-Ka Vapor Valley Crystal” that she originally inventoried in July, of 1908. There are a number of entries that attribute this crystal to finds and trade goods from what they called, "Vapor Valley Conference." She makes eleven lengthy and detailed journal entries that span a two decade period where she describes herself, and a number of her associates being presented as guest speakers bearing gifts at a tribal conference of Native American Holy Men to discuss the members of, "the Secret Rosicross who hold power" and their ongoing quest to shut down or rather obliterate Native Holy Sites worldwide.
The gems are part of a group she had commissioned to be cut in 1963 by a New York, practitioner, follower, gem cutter she names as, "Jew George" who had been used extensively by her long time friend Maya Deren, who had introduced them. Many of the loose gemstones and those set in jewelry we recovered from this estate were attributed to his gem cutting skills. The gems are of fine brilliant cut and display a dramatic rainbow color.
Our own research has turned up some pretty fascinating information corroborating Golden Dawn, Eastern Star, and Rosicrucian ritual molestation and murder, ie; sacrificial ceremony, usually of young, "bred" family members. These ceremonies taking place at spas or springs which were once Native American Holy Ritual Sites that have now been covered up or obliterated from the face of the earth. This, they claim, is responsible for the disproportionate number of children's deaths attributed as farm accidents in their rural regions of operation.
There really is an abundance of information along these lines of research, far too much to place in this already lengthy text, but we wholeheartedly encourage you to research this further on your own.
~!~
Their journals indicate they used this source of crystal in past life dream recall and spell invocation. Some of her journal entries read; "held aloft in both hands before being drawn into the chakra in descending order as a prelude to entering the meditative state."
These entries describe a lengthy, silent use of intense physical and mental concentration as this would take upwards of three hours to perform.” She also notes, "these stones have side affects, usually on those not indoctrinated to our ways," as she puts it in one entry. These side affects include disorientation, nervousness, excessive sweating and nausea.
Another entry reads, "If these discomforts arise, discontinue your use, bathe and cleanse yourself with sage. After a brief rest you may continue, noticing longer periods of use without discomfort with each successive session."
Other entries read, "One's chakra must be cleansed once the stone has let blood (anointed with blood). Once considered, it is a stone of clear communication, allowing access to information along the timeline of our adult and childhood spirit memories often invoking laughter. This is a beneficial, healing crystal we have utilized in stimulating intuit ability blocked with childhood memories. They are advanced practitioner stones that communicate this knowledge to those that walk our paths. This is not a lone use stone, as it feeds on, and generates energy among groups fostering the group energy into a single, focused force that can be stored in the crystal, and controlled, as it is quite cooperative."
"It is an excellent choice in the stimulation of a group cohesiveness. Its energies are that of compassion, and understanding, as they heal the hearts from pain."
"A meditation crystal to provide insight into family or other social problems. Here is a pleasant and confidence assuring stone, whose internal rainbow visions produce an energy suited to the viewer's vibrations that bring these rainbows to this life's plane of existence."

The Citrine and Prasiolite Gems
Cherokee Shaman's Dream Intrusion Citrine
Pictured on the lower left, the lighter yellow stone is one of seven gems gifted to her by a "James Mooney of Washington D.C. in the year of his death," according to her inventory.
The timeline and journal entries indicate this is the anthropologist and author of some note. Much is already written of this historical figure and a cursory search will provide some very interesting reading in which she, of course, claims to have had a hand. She also claimed to have "intimate knowledge of him in order to pry from his mind the secrets he did not know he had," but she does not elaborate further.
She does make note of "the tell that went with the gift" and makes a rather lengthy entry concerning his coming to have these stones in the first place. Essentially, they were cut from a stone given to him by what she terms a "*indädû anida'ehïwas" which loosely translates as supernatural snake and he was told to "prepare this as gifts to her in the year of your (his) death."
She goes on, "his recollection was 'in the early 1890's, '91 or '92 when the new half breed Shaman approached me with this raw yellow stone and of not understanding what he meant, calling out to him and being ignored as he walked away, never to be seen by me again. On meeting you I immediately knew you were the one to have them."
Given to her in it's present form, allegedly Money had the stone cut into the seven gems in Washington D.C. in 1919. She writes of these stones; "ancient energies of defeat and trouble have been stored in this stone that respond to the formulas. These are easily discharged over distanced direction and recharge without cleansing. It's energies are very dark unlike other citrine. It likes to be touched."
She claims that when pressed or rubbed "it makes the connection" as she worded it. She also alleges that pressing the face of the stone against any facial skin of anyone allows entry into their dreams at any time.

This flawless, pale yellow faceted oval citrine gem measures approximately 25.4 x 19.05 x 9.525 mm, 24.43 ct., faceted oval cut citrine gemstone that faces up completely clean under 10x loupe magnification.
It is well faceted with excellent brilliance.
It is a beautiful clean gem with strong "lemon citrine" color.

Brazilian Shaman's Citrine Gem
Her inventory tells us this 23.8125 x 17.4625 x 11.1125 mm, 24.49ct. faceted oval citrine gem (shown above center) was cut from one of the many finds she brought back from her 1962 Brazilian Shaman artifact hunt.
Although she does not name them in her notes she solicited a handful of Brazilian holy men, healers, sorcerers and seers to act as guides to her party and relinquish some of their precious finds usually in trade for guns.
It is also one of the stones she had cut, by one of her unnamed New Orleans practitioner, follower, makers in 1962/63.
She writes of the crystal the gem was cut from being hand picked and of inducing it with spells or "charging" it as she called it. She also writes of this source of citrine as having a wide range of metaphysical properties.
Two of her journal entries read; "This source of stone has very strong, positive vibrations that are readily available. Its energies intensify with use which has been enhanced by their cutting. These stones reborn have proven useful in calming all associated with them. A proven aid for those seeking spiritual growth. The meditations and healing's that I have administered with these stone have been most rewarding."
"The finished gem's facets enhance the focus of this stone's energies, it comes alive when pressure and breath applied to the stone."
This citrine gemstone was faceted from natural color crystal that was mined in Brazil. It is of fine cut and views clean when viewed face up under 10x loupe magnification. The gem has not been heated or treated in any way.

Ma Saep Nang Phra Sant Yant Sex Dream Ritual Cloth
~!~
Uncle Khoo
Her journals tell us of her being introduced to the attending monks of a close friend's funeral in Thailand in 1941 (the Khattiya Monk). Their apparent senior member introducing himself as, "Uncle Khoo." Through her interpreter he was introduced to her as, ‘Tok Raja’, who told her the Khattiya Monk's name was Balin Dith (her above mentioned friend), a Khmer who had saved his life in the jungle many years ago and had kept his promise of visiting him (Tok Raja) in Malaysia which he had done for the last time, days before his death. She too was asked to promise to visit him in Malaysia. A promise her journals tell us she did fulfill three times prior to her own death.
Her journals do not add any information concerning this famous Thai Chief Abbot of the Kelantan state of Malaysia that is not already readily available to the casual researcher, so there is no need for us to further burden this text with what you should research on your own.
Her journals do tell us it was five years later that she returned to Malaysia to visit her Uncle Khoo. She brought back four ritual vests and forty of these yant cloths which were personally blessed and given to her by Uncle Khoo as a parting gift, being one of four types of these cloths given to her.

These are vintage copies of the original antique versions of these sex ritual cloths. The originals were made by unknown monk(s) or sorcerer(s), perhaps in collaboration with others. This design is first recorded sometime in the early 1940's but is known to be considerably older. This is an old depiction that is often copied and sold today, but none of the vendor's who had them were able to provide correct information as to the maker monks or their associated temples to this day.
Our research leads us to believe the design is of Burmese, or Malaysian origin by a Thai or Cambodian refugee monk or Ajarn.
~!~
This is a sacred Pha Yant Mah Saep Nang cloth and is considered one of the most powerful love amulets ever created. It is a sacred-charm cloth amulet with many alleged attributes but foremost for its ability to increase sex appeal and convert enemies into friends. Its main theme of a stallion having sexual intercourse with a young maiden is supposed to be obviously synonymous with the power of sex appeal. It is a very powerful and highly potent symbol of sexual prowess and masculinity in Thailand. The cloth is also covered with sacred spells to increase the power of the cloth amulet.
This design was created in strict accordance with ancient sciences. They are made from the same material used as shrouds to cover the deceased prior to cremation. According to the Thai belief, the spirit of those that die may possibly depart the cadaver and possess those that attempt to remove the cloth. The attending monk(s) employ powerful spells to ensure the departed soul becomes a positive force for the good of helping worshippers of the sacred cloth yants and not harming them!
This has always been an obscure and arcane practice, and today, very few monks create this type of charm amulet because the knowledge of how to do so is quickly dying as each generation passes. The cloths are believed by many to possess miraculous power and are attributed as the most powerful of all love charms.
Her journals tell us she would use these, “over the pillows and under the pillowcases and, or place them under the sheets, mattress or bed for multiple blessings for relationships such as, sex magic, love, sex appeal, fertility, charm, success and good fortune. There are numerous Akara (spells) surrounding the core theme of one of the most potent symbols of sexual prowess and masculinity, Maa Saep Nang, the young female being fucked silly by horse cock.” (although this imagery is powerful it is not meant to be taken literally)
The exact history of the Ma Saep Nang Maha Sanae Wicha (Charm Magic) is not known but many scholars have evidence to suggest that it first originated in Burma and initially established itself in the Lanna kingdom of present day Thailand. Little is ever mentioned about Burmese magic but it is thought to be equally as powerful as the much publicized Khmer magic. It is known that Burmese kings imported large numbers of Sanskrit texts from India on topics such as medicine, alchemy, incantation, sex and astrology. In Burma, these Buddhist wizards are practitioners of what is called the weikza-lam (path of occult knowledge).
This tradition still exists today in Burma (present day Myanmar), and the largest of the groups practicing this occult path is based in the city of Pegy, and is called the Manosetopad Gaing. Like their Thai counterparts, this organization bases an interest in the occult on the powers attained by the Buddha on the path to enlightenment. They also believe that the relics of the Buddha (Burmese dat-daw) (Pali dhatu) are possessed of a kind of majestic power that he infused in them through the force of his samadhi. It is clear from reading many of the ancient texts that the Burmese magic is based on a much older tradition of Spirit religions and animistic world views
In fact Ma Saep Nang is only one of a series of four related (Sut Yot Sanae) images that comprise the original Maha Sanae wicha, the others being, Nang Song Wua Saep, (two bulls and female), Sam Noo Gin Nam Nom Meaw (three rats/mice drinking cats milk) this Maha Sanae Wicha was made famous by Ajahn Chum Chaikiri, and finally See Wua Gin Nam Nom Seua (four cows drinking tigers milk).
According to the popular legend of this magic a family that had a very beautiful daughter who was made responsible for tending to a prime specimen male horse on a daily basis. She eventually becomes very attached to the horse and actually falls in love and has a sexual encounter with her charge. Her father learns of this and is so ashamed that he kills the horse. The end result is a dead heart for the young girl. Essentially the Maa Saep Nang magic and yants are associated with strong and powerful lust and attraction.
One of her journal entries gives us this sacred spell or Khata to chant over these cloths;
Ohm Nang Kuwk Nang Gwang Kwang
Gwang Ao Sao Mar Ner Nang Ner
Mar Raew Mar Ruk Gun Roi Mern Ter
San Wun Gor Hai Mar Har Koo Ner Nang
Hark Yoo Fark Far Gor Hai Mar Har Koo Ner Nang Ner Nang
Hark Yoo Lai Mair Num Kun San Wung Gor Hai Lan Mar Har Koo Ner Nang Ner Nang
And she goes on to tell us, “if you decide to walk this path you must fill you mind with nothing other then thoughts of the Three Jewels. This will generate loving kindness toward the various grades of nats (here she refers to powerful nature spirits dwelling in trees, the earth, and mountains, the minor deities who preside over the use of magical incantations and diagrams, and medicine spirits whose domain includes the well-known herbs and minerals of alchemical lore).
Some other entries warn of, "the uninitiated using the cloth during seduction or sexual intercourse. This has led to painful, long lasting erections in the male and nymphomania in the female."
~!~
Yant Magic
Our own research has shown all Yant, fall into the amulet category known as Kruang Reang i.e. Objects of Magic. These are sacred images of high age from past guru masters that are highly collectible and can command a high price on today’s market. The symbolism they display are usually seen as tattoos known as Sak Yant, of the Khmer Sorcerer Monks, Muay Tai fighters, mixed martial artists and some celebrities today. When this intricate script is written on cloth it is known as 'Phra Yant'. It is also etched on the soft metals used in Takrut's and on many Thai amulets.
The word Yant itself comes from the old the Sanskrit meaning, 'a sacred geometrical design' and is usually accompanied with a written Khom script or set of characters which are linked to the prayer or katha. The script is a combination of Khom, Thai and the Sanskrit language, which is a style of early Khmer wicha magic that has been adopted by Buddhist monks and Ajarns (civilian Brahmins) of Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Malaysia.
In its form as a tattoo, (Sak Yant) it is much more than a fashion statement. It is intrinsically linked to Buddha, Buddhist precepts and the guru master who created it. The worshipper must truly believe and follow any instructions, as it is said the embedded wicha power may vanish if the are not followed.
Each design is unique in meaning and purpose as crafted by its maker, but follows a common theme such as bringing good luck and fortune, protection from harm and accidents, warding off evil spirits, love and attraction, power and success, great fighter, great lover, great talker etc. In any of its forms, the sorcerer monk will chant his own form of incantation spell and ancient katha chant, at some point during the end of the process of making the yant, which concludes with Pao Katha, a blowing of the masters breath across the article to bind and activate the magical formula.
Her journals tell us one of Uncle Khoo's Phra Pidta amulets were given to one of her associates (1898 LiDiex) prior to his U.S Army deployment to the Pacific during World War II. In one of his journal entries he tells of being shot in the face and stomach at point blank range by a pair of Japanese soldiers, the bullets falling to the ground after bouncing off of him. He attributes his amulet Phra Pidta with saving his life. The Japanese soldiers did not fare as well. He was not wearing any of his many amulets the day he was killed.
Similar stories abound in Thai and Malaysian police files and military veteran testimony. Although early police files indicate the criminal, wearing or carrying a Phra Yant was attributed with invulnerability, speed, and/or invisibility, it did not take the police officers long to catch on. More often than not, they carry them today!
All of this is a fascinating study of the cultural magic practiced in Thailand that we wholeheartedly recommend you research further.

Cellulose is an organic compound consisting of a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of linked D-glucose units. It is an important structural component of the primary cell wall of green plants, many forms of algae and the oomycetes. Some species of bacteria secrete it to form biofilms. Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer on Earth. The cellulose content of cotton fiber is 90%, that of wood is 40–50%, and that of dried hemp is approximately 57%.
It is mainly used to produce paperboard and paper. Smaller quantities are converted into a wide variety of derivative products such as cellophane and rayon. Conversion of cellulose from energy crops into biofuels such as cellulosic ethanol is under development as a renewable fuel source. Cellulose for industrial use is mainly obtained from wood pulp and cotton. Some animals, particularly ruminants and termites, can digest cellulose with the help of symbiotic micro-organisms that live in their guts, such as Trichonympha. In human nutrition, cellulose is a non-digestible constituent of insoluble dietary fiber, acting as a hydrophilic bulking agent for feces and potentially aiding in defecation. It has no taste, is odorless, is hydrophilic with the contact angle of 20–30 degrees, is insoluble in water and most organic solvents, is chiral and is biodegradable. It was shown to melt at 467 °C in 2016. It can be broken down chemically into its glucose units by treating it with concentrated mineral acids at high temperature.
The cloth measures approximately 12 3/4" x 8 7/8".

So How Do I Use It?
With all do respect and very carefully. It is primarily a weapon but it was also used to heal, find love matches and lost property. Go figure.
It is certainly a nicely aged vintage lot of artifact with an extraordinary provenance that is much nicer than the photographs are able to depict.
And so my friends that concludes this one, unless of course you have any questions!
