Butter gods'There are over 15,000,000 Hui-Hui (Moslems) in China today most of whom are descendant of migrations of Turks, Arabs, and Central Asian peoples.

It is modified for practical purposes with an oval cutout for the face.'Forman, H. (1948). Changing China. New York: Crown Publishers. p. 52.GrayscaleForman Nitrate Negatives, Box
