Wonderful work Seerp.

I think I commented on the missing information from Groneman a few years ago, somebody who keeps track of posts to this Forum may be able to identify that post. I rather feel that Karja di Kromo himself probably excluded Groneman from the crucial sessions of work.

In recent times Empu Pauzan Pusposukadgo did a similar thing by publishing incomplete information in a booklet he published on how to make keris.

But this is history.

Your work in locating these keris is truly commendable.

Congratulations on a job well done.

Some impressive detective work indeed. I wonder though if this museum realizes the historical import of these keris in the same manner that we involved in the keris world do. I would hate to see them buried in their vaults when they re-open. Museums are also notorious for not giving proper care and maintenance to keris.
