- Title:
- Hikayat (Dewa) Indera Layangan
- Scope & Content:
-
In Malay in Jawi script. Hikayat Dewa Indera Layangan, telling the story of a king Mengindera Cuaca of Indera Perjangga and his sons. Colophon on f.69r states that the MS was completed on 30 Safar 1230 (11 February 1815) in Kampung Melayu, Semarang (tarikh seribu dua ratus tiga puluh tahun kepada tahun zai dan kepada tiga puluh hari bulan Safar kepada hari Khamis pukul sembilan dewasa itulah tamatnya Hikayat Indera Layangan dalam negeri Semarang Kampung Melayu adanya). Niemann (1871: 99) says this seems to contain a slightly shortened version of the Hikayat Indera Kayangan. F.1v contains a brief ketika on auspicious days of the month.
