Summary
| Description |
English: Cetbang cannon from Majapahit empire era Indonesia (Java); Cannon; Metalwork Circa 14th century Bronze Length 37 7/16 in. (95.2 cm) Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Lerner, in honor of Professor Samuel Eilenberg, 1986. Accession Number: 1986.503 According to M. Averoes, this cannon's dating was wrong, because it preceded the entry of the breech-loading swivel cannon into the Nusantara archipelago, which he estimated to be occured in the 1460s. From the symbol of Surya Majapahit found on the barrel (to be precise above the fork or swivel fork), it can be estimated that this cannon was made before the fall of the capital city of Majapahit, in 1478. He estimates that this cetbang cannon was made between 1470-1478. A similar cannon can also be found in the Bali museum, with the Surya Majapahit insignia on the front of the muzzle, and the symbol of the 5 cosmic mountains above the fork. Bahasa Indonesia: Meriam Cet-bang dari zaman kerajaan Majapahit Indonesia (Jawa); Meriam; Benda logam Sekitar abad ke-14 masehi Perunggu Panjang 37 7/16 inci (95.2 cm) Hadiah dari Tuan Dan Nyonya Martin Lerner, untuk menghormati Profesor Samuel Eilenberg, 1986. Nomor Aksesi: 1986.503 Menurut M. Averoes, penanggalan meriam ini keliru, karena mendahului masuknya meriam putar isian belakang ke Nusantara, yang ia perkirakan terjadi pada tahun 1460-an. Dari lambang Surya Majapahit yang terdapat pada atas larasnya (tepatnya di atas cagak atau garpu putar), bisa diperkirakan meriam ini dibuat sebelum jatuhnya ibukota Majapahit, yaitu tahun 1478. Beliau memperkirakan pembuatan meriam cetbang ini antara tahun 1470-1478. Meriam sejenis juga dapat ditemukan di museum bali, dengan lambang Surya Majapahit di bagian depan moncongnya, dan lambang 5 gunung kosmis di atas cagaknya. |
