THE WORSHIP OF BH1⁄2MA

VOLUME I: TEXT

MARIJKE DUIJKER

During the Majapahit Period (14th to 15th centuries) Bh»ma representations, statues as well as reliefs, were found on

mountain sanctuaries in East en Central Java. Given the number of statues there was a worship of Bh»ma during this period.

This study deals with the motives and the spread of the worship, its relation to other gods, its origin, and the influence of wayang on the worship. The study concentrates on the iconography of Bh»ma, examines Bh»ma in literature, narrative relief scenes and inscriptions, and studies the material and historical context of the Bh»ma representations.

Bh»ma is one of the main protagonists of the well-known

Sanskrit epic Mah¹bh¹rata. The protagonists of this epic feature since the 10th century in wayang performances, literature and on reliefs on Java and Bali.

Marijke Duijker (1944) studied Indonesian Languages and Cultures at Leiden University from 1984 to 1988. Between 1992 and 1998 she did fieldwork in Java, Cambodia and Nepal, which is the basis of this PhD thesis.
