TAMPAN Lampung textiles were known as 'ship cloths'

because ships are a common motif. The ship motif represents the transition from one realm of life to the next, for instances from childhood to and adult, from being single to married and also represents the final transition to the afterlife.

They were worn or displayed during ceremonies or used as dowry items.

Gifts presented during marriages were wrapped in the tampan.
