Thanks for posting. What points to these being for pupuk rather than containers for other purposes? The general cylindrical bamboo containers with Batak symbolic carvings are rather common and used to hold a range of substances, and many were also produced for the tourist market. The Wikipedia article, to me, leans toward more extreme pustaha references that may not reflect typical practice, similar to how ritualized cannibalism is often exaggerated.
