Historical prose text
- Scope & Content:
-
‘Historical’ prose text, from Bali.
Comment by S. Supomo, 27 October 2013: “I can only say that the MS is probably a kind of Old Javanese ‘historical’ prose – like the Pararaton. This is apparent from some proper names which occur in the text, e.g.: [ha]yam Uruk, sryaji Wĕngker, patih Madhu, patih Tatag, Marga Lĕwih. While the names of Ayam Uruk and Wĕngker occur in various sources, as far as I know the last three names are known only in Kidung Sunda (see C.C. Berg, Kidung Sundayana, Surakarta, 1928, Canto 5.20 for Tatag and Marga Lĕwih). However, there are also names which do not occur in the Kidung Sunda, as well as in the Pararaton, e.g. Arya Damar of Palembang, and Jaran Pakolih of Madura; and Arya Damar, who ‘mukti’ in Palembang, most likely refers to Arya Damar of the Babad Tanah Jawi.”
