hi Alan,
to clarify tombak/tombakipun that when I was in Jogja, I prefferred to buy spearheads rather than kerises. first, it was interested me since I knew a synonim of tombak was waos (tooth) while a synonim of keris was curigo (curious). second, it was cheaper than keris.
seemingly, I took a risk to tell about Mataram style of succession. So far, I dont have any motive but to say what I hear for the purpose of historical background in discussing "between Djokja and Solo" (and Mataram).
okay... to all kerislovers, it is time for us to upload tangguh Surakarta and Jogjakarta. please....
Usmen

Maybe everybody is outside playing. Waste of time spending good days in front of a computer. I should raise my fees.
What's this "tombak lover" business?
Rather partial to tombakipuns myself, but I don't think I'd bill myself as a tombak lover. Too many clever people could make too many unfortunate remarks.
