Summary[edit]

Description
English: Penataran, East Java

Information from Pigeaud's Java in the 14th century:
A battle: the party of five men (one lies on the ground, wounded) at the right apparently is trying to recover a Prin­cess who is carried off by a Prince riding on the car drawn by four horses at the left. The attire and the weapons of the fighting men are peculiar. Several pursuers wear a headdress resembling the diadems (jamang) of modern Javanese wayang puppets and a kind of coats of mail as protection of the breast. They are armed with short pikes and round bucklers or with a kind of curved stabbing knives, daggers or small swords with tassels on the hilt, showing not much resem­blance to modern Javanese crisses. Most men of the pursued party at the left (probably being of higher standing than the others) have their hair made up in a chignon at the back of their heads. Their weapons are the same as those used by the other party except for the bow of the Prince on the car. The decorated triangle is the car's wooden back-screen and the standing poles are the supports of the roof of plaited bamboo that has been removed for the occasion of the flight. Behind the wounded man's buckler the head and hand of a clownish servant (panakawan) appear. Apparently he is trying to crawl away from danger. Drawn after a stone relief of Candi Pana­taran, central temple (± 1347 A.D.). Represented are scenes from the Old Javanese romantic poem Kresnayana. The Prince's crown has been left out as belonging more to mythology than to real life...
Bahasa Indonesia: Pandangan dekat dari Relief Krishnayana, kompleks candi Candi Penataran. Dari candi induk yang bertuliskan tahun 1269 saka atau 1347 M.

Informasi dari Java in the 14th century karya Pigeaud:
Sebuah pertempuran: rombongan lima orang (satu terletak di tanah, terluka) di sebelah kanan rupanya sedang berusaha mengembalikan seorang Putri yang dibawa pergi oleh seorang Pangeran yang mengendarai kereta kencana yang ditarik oleh empat ekor kuda di sebelah kiri. Pakaian dan senjata para pejuang itu khas. Beberapa pengejar mengenakan hiasan kepala yang menyerupai diadem (jamang) wayang-wayang Jawa modern dan semacam baju zirah sebagai pelindung dada. Mereka dipersenjatai dengan tombak pendek dan perisai bundar atau dengan sejenis pisau tikam melengkung, belati atau pedang kecil dengan jumbai di gagangnya, tidak mirip dengan keris Jawa modern. Sebagian besar pria dari pihak yang dikejar di sebelah kiri (mungkin memiliki kedudukan lebih tinggi dari yang lain) memiliki rambut yang dibuat dengan sanggul di bagian belakang kepala mereka. Senjata mereka sama dengan yang digunakan oleh pihak lain kecuali untuk busur panah sang Pangeran di kereta kencana. Segitiga berhiasan adalah sekat belakang kereta kencana yang terbuat dari kayu dan tiang-tiangnya adalah penopang atap anyaman bambu yang telah dilepas untuk keperluan pelarian. Di belakang perisai pinggang pria yang terluka itu, muncul kepala dan tangan seorang pelayan badut (panakawan). Rupanya dia mencoba merangkak menjauh dari bahaya. Digambar setelah relief batu Candi Panataran, candi induk (± 1347 M). Diwakili adalah adegan-adegan dari puisi romantis Jawa Kuno Kresnayana. Mahkota Pangeran telah ditinggalkan karena lebih sebagai kisah mitologi daripada kehidupan nyata...
