Tegur Wangi Petroglyphs is located on the eastern slope of Mountain Dempo at the southwestern region of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is carved on a perpendicular rock pannel, five meter tall, four meters width, facing the north.
It is made up largely with two parts. One is a human figure in the center, carrying a bronze drurn(donson drum) on his back. The other is composed of small figures and lines on the bottom of the rock pannel. The figures are mostly as small as 5 centimeters and lined very finely by engraving.
The figure in the center is crouching with his face towards the west but his legs are spread as if running. He is wearing a helmet-like head gear which has petal shaped ornaments on it. l3s knees and elbows are expressed with two circles each, making the figure look like a puppet. This image is very similar to the stone sculptures found in the areas around Mountain Dempo and Lahat.
Therefore, it can be assumed the center figure in Tegur Wangi Petroglyphs was carved around the same time the stone sculptures were made. The donson drum the figure is carrying on his back was patterned after a bronze artifact widely found in Southeast Asia. It is thought to have come from Indochina, or Yunnan or Guanxi in Southern China. The civilization which could make bronze and other metal objects was first introduced to Indonesia around the 5th century B.C. and lasted until the 1st century AD. Therefore, it can be suggested that the center figure was made during those several hundred years. The small figures at the bottom have their arms spread holding each others' hands. There are also heads with sunray patterns around them and fine tilting lines and dotted lines. They seem to belong to a later period than the center figure.
