Notes
brown rounded wooden boards — The script, the orthography and the idiom are East Javanese. Many leaves containing
adventures of Menak Amir Hamza (called Amja) were written by a scribe writing a bold
upright hand. The writing on other leaves is smaller and somewhat sloping. — palm leaf — Yusup romance in macapat metre; Leaves originally belonging to different mss., and
written by various hands, were combined. A German note containing Professor Berg’s
opinion on the ms., given in Leiden about 1930, is added. Professor Berg mentioned
the Anbiya texts, History of the Prophets, as related with the well-known Yusup romance
(Joseph in Egypt). Many leaves of the ms. originally belonged to a ms. containing
Menak Amir Hamza tales. The original mss. were probably written in East Java in the second half of the 19th
century.
