Kukkuvagga

Suttapiṭaka · Khuddakanikāya · Jātaka (1) · Vol. 27 · Section 969

[969] The roof-peak (kaṇṇikā) is one and a half cubits (kukku) in height, and eight spans (vidatthi) encircle it round about; it is of sīsapā wood, made of heartwood, without sapwood: where does it rest, that it does not fall down from above?
