How does a dhapur get its name?
Relatedly, is there a relationship between the name of the dhapur and the kerises physical form, or with the tuah of the dhapur?
I suspect this might differ on a case-by-case basis, so I'll throw out some examples to get the ball rolling to see if anyone can offer a meaning or reason behind the given name.
- Dhapur tilam upih (noun) - translated as "bed made of the leaf sheaths of the areca palm"
- Pasupati (proper noun) - an incarnation of Shiva
- Jangkung (adjective) - tall or langky person, or Robson also has another definition of "to guard from afar, watch from a distance/"
Do feel free to offer any others.
