In the olden days, the main purpose of creating Kumantong was to protect the owner. The young child ghost could be activated with Mantra to fight the owner's enemies and to protect the owner's treasures.
In those days, Occult master had to go to the graveyard alone in the night, dig up the corpse of dead pregnant woman, cut the corpse's abdomen and then proceed directly to the nearest temple outer area for the roasting processes. That's the safe place to protect the ghost mother from trying to bring her baby back. So only the strong-mind person who possesses the advanced magical knowledge to subdue the ghost may do this.
More detailed information on different type of Kumantongs are explained here
In this present era, Kumantongs is created mainly for the purpose of bringing good luck , wealth and for fortune purposes, attract customers into the shop and protect owners from harm and harming no one. Kumantongs have to accept Buddhism and do no harm before they are given the status of "Kumantong".
Out of Compassion, Monks or Ar-Chans (Spiritual Masters of Thailand) in these present days still continue creating Kumantongs by invoking the souls of aborted fetus so as to liberate them. The souls of aborted fetuses are in great suffering, they are lost earth bound ghosts. Specific mantra are chanted to invite their souls to reside in the figurines.
By offering these souls of aborted fetuses a place to reside and with daily recitation of mantras, the keepers transfer their merits to these souls and pray that they are liberated. At the same time, these spiritual beings will bring prosperity and fortune and look after the keepers.
Apart from Guman Thong, there is also the Golden Gumaree, Gumaree or Gumareethong, essentially a female form of the Guman Thong.
