Galuang Kabau names have meanings respectively. At the Galuang there are tendrils that form a circle toward the center or outside the circle. The galuang name is based on galuang in each letter. Kabau is a word that give minang traditional house a sign at roof top of the house, like an horn buffalo, so at the top of my font, i also give a horn buffalo as the same as minang traditional house. The Minangkabau (also called the Minang) come from West Sumatra Province and are the majority ethnic group in all areas of the province other than in the islands inhabited by the Mentawai people. They are the fourth largest ethnic group in Indonesia and have a great deal of influence. The very name Minangkabau witnesses to a high degree of wit. Literally the name is said to mean "winning" (menang) "water buffalo" (kabau or kerbau). Traditional Minangkabau homes have roof eaves that soar outwards like the horns of the buffalo.
