Description (Physical description)
Heavily damaged drawing which appears to show an astrological calendar of some description. There is a large amount of Burmese script written on the picture. The calendar consists of circular rings which are used to determine an individual's horoscope. Some of the Burmese script is less faded than other parts, suggesting that particularly faded writing has been redrawn more recently than others. There is a large part of paper in the middle missing, and it is unclear as to why this has happened.
