New finds in northern Central Java

---

he northern part of Central Java has until recently to attract the attention of archeologists. One reason could be that except in the regency of Semarang, no temples were discovered, compared to the abundance of remains in the southern part of central Java dating from the Sailendra period, like the temples of Borobudur, Prambanan, Plaosan and Sewu with marvelous sculptures scattered all over the area. One of the few writers was H.J. Domis (VBG, 1825, 10) who wrote about the archeological remains around the Merbabu Mountain and the temple of Gedong Sanga in the regency of Semarang. J.F.G. Brumund, whose account was recorded in Bijdragen tot de kennis van het Hindoeisme op Java" (VBG 1868, 33) visited the area between Tegal and Demak. From his account we gather that Brumund found only loose objects such as statues, inscriptions and smaller items. No mention was made of foundation except for those of the temples around Ungaran.rnInd (05/07/24)"
