Moro keris/kalis ID

adamb · Today, 02:39 AM

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can provide a little information on this keris/kalis; likely source of origin in the region, and approximate age? Both are of interest but especially the latter, as it might help make sense of the inscription on the label.

Any and all insight much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I'd venture Maguindanao (Island of Mindanao) and mid 19c.

I'll let others correct me.
