Original Message:   Thanks, Mor...

Thanks, Mor, that's very helpful. You've certainly explained what's happening in that statue in Kampong Cham. Incidentally, for anyone who wants to read the story in the original version of the Ramayana, the names of these characters there are Vali (the king of the monkeys and, as you say, Hanuman's uncle) and Dundubhi, the buffalo demon. (Dundubhi in Sanskrit also means a large drum.) I wonder, Mor, if you have any thoughts about what story is being referred to on the knife handle?
