Notes
thin blackened bamboo — The writing is difficult to read; several mistakes — palm leaf — In late variety of the "buda"- or "gunung" Script (used in Central Java in the 15th
century and even later) (see Pigeaud, Lit. of Java, vol. III, p. 22 and 23, facsimiles): Notes on divination and medicines (tamba), with some incantations of gods and magic
formulas, incoherent, written by different hands. Islamic influence is in evidence. The manuscript belonged once to the Kedakan library like Schoemann I 21, but Schoemann
II 1 a and 2 seem to be the younger ones. Their palmleaves are from the lontar, not
from the gebang palm, and the writing is scratched, not written with ink. They might
date from the 16th century. Cf. § 41.960 (Lit. of Java, I, p. 283). The last 9 pages contain a pawukon, a divination calendar based on the 30 wuku weeks
of 7 days each, making a “year” of 210 days. Cf. VOHD XXXI, 28.
