Default Mataram era kerises....

Dear Jean,

Even more kerises stored in this museum. The picture above, is only one of about 10 showcase containing kerises, kudi, kujang, pedang (sword), sundanese golok, and dozens of old tombaks (spears). And not only tosan aji that come from the Sundanese, Cirebon, but also Mataram as well, and there also s few tosan aji from outside Jawa. Some kerises derived from Mataram period, especially the era of Sultan Agung, because Sumedang did in the past been closely related to Mataram. Especially after its kingdom status was degraded by the Dutch colonial government, became the duchy (kadipaten) or regent (kabupaten).

Also stored in this museum, some ancient manuscripts, as well as various forms kudi and traditional form pusaka of Sunda, kujang are clearly visible, at least to the time of Padjadjaran kingdom in Sunda ...

There are also two Nagasasra kerises that has a history, as it is used by certain figures in Sumedang to hereditary, and there are records. One of the keris, is Nagasasra once worn by Prince Kornel, one person Sumedang regent - who prefers to use his right hand holding a keris, as well as one of the leaders greet colonial Dutch East Indies Governor General Willem Daendels use his left hand .....
