Most of the inputs are wrong.

This is made from what we used to call a gum tree. A cut on the tree makes it bleed a gummy substance that gets thicker eventually.

Wrapping and folding that substance creates the ball in the above picture.
my brother I was wondering too.



This is gotten from rubber tree na..

It was popular then in ishan were I was born.
