Perhaps someone could identify motifs found on this Si Ginjai blade, the famous Keris Palembang presented by Sultan Agung. Pls focus on these two golden looking animals on the blade. What are those symbols for? Is it similar to Singa-Gajah symbols found in some of the Javanese kerises. Thanks in advance, Mykeris.
