Hi all,
I've took the liberty to take a snapshot from "Dhapur" for discussion. The one in Ki Hudoyo's "Keris...", I think it is from the same source. My question is, why call it "Panji Kuda"? A bit strange to me. Literally, I would have translate it as what ganjawulung did.. panji = banner, flag; kuda = horse. It might be the symbolic representation of these elements which forms the philosophy of this keris form, taking note of the uribing dilah, the naga and the barong..?
