Jean:-
What is the difference between the ron dha nunut and ron dha besides their different location? (wadidang and ganja).
nunut means to follow along, the ron dha in the wadidang"follows along" with the other ron dha in the gonjo, so this wadidang ron dha is the ron dha nunut
. What is the name of the hook/ thorn on top of the ron dha nunut, is it included in the ron dha nunut or not?
according to what I have been taught this is a ri pandan, and it forms part of the ron dha
. Whenever the greneng is limited to a single protrusion like for dhapur Tilam Sari, it is called thingil.
sorry Jean, not according to the Surakarta Pakem, here it is called a ri pandan
I'm in the process right now of putting up some posts that I do not expect will lessen this confusion, but will at least help you to understand what you are facing when you try to understand the keris from a Javanese perspective.
