Types of Keris

[Jean]

Hi Spunger,
I will just try to amend and complete your classification list of Indonesian krisses by origin as follows:
. Javanese krisses (Central Java, East Java, North Coast, West Java)
. Madurese krisses
. Bali/ Lombok krisses
. Sulawesi & Sumbawa krisses (Bugis)
. Sumatra krisses (South Sumatra, Jambi, Riau (bahari & panjang), Riau Lingga (Bugis), Minangkabau/ West Sumatra, Gayo, Aceh)
. Kalimantan (Borneo) krisses (Banjarmasin, Moro)

There are of course many sub-types and specific types of krisses such as the Yogyakarta and Solo krisses in Central Java, Toraja krisses in Sulawesi, etc. and this classification can be disputed and amended as required.

Pattani is located in Thailand so should be excluded.
