Other notes:
The manuscript is ruined because of wrong treatment and bad storage conditions in a bag. Nevertheless, the text is important for its information on the local history of Indramayu. Similar bags of manuscripts have been found in other villages but DREAMSEA could not access them because they are considered sacral by the local people. The manuscript has 24 leaves but there are 96 images because the left and right sides of both sides of the leaves were photographed separately indicated by ra, rb, va and vb.
