    Betel Nut is consumed on a daily basis in a large portion of the Indonesian Archipellago. In Java, betel nut was offered as a sign of respect and hospitality when people would visit one’s home. Often these boxes stored various nuts, leaves, tobacco, and other spices. A wonderful piece of Indonesian history and culture.
