How dechipher Chinese (?) Writing in ancient water buffalo opium pipe?
While traveling in Laos bought from a peddler of a pipe old from the horn of a water buffalo. It is carved and has what looks like Chinese writing on it. I think this time it was used as an opium pipe. I have asked native Chinese freinds to translate, but it says that the characters are old and not known about them. Are there resources that can see an image of writing and translate this for me?
Take a photo of it and post it online. You use the Cantonese Chinese and simplified Chinese characters. But usually the marks are about the seasons, plants, items and horoscopes. Often they are calendars, almanacs and proverbs.
