Houses and parts of houses Many parts of houses - such as roof decorations, doors and door frames, and decorations for pillars - have survived in museums. In addition, house models - which may also serve as sources for information - are held in several museums.[42] Naturally, one should be careful not to study the models without a critical view on the consequences of building scale models, since models may not always accurately represent reality. It should also be noted that the models have probably always been made for a collector and never for local use. As in many societies, the houses are important material expressions on Enggano, with various symbolic meanings. |
