Moon of Pejeng

The Moon of Pejeng, also known as the Pejeng Moon,〔For a thorough scholarly analysis of the Pejeng Moon and the type of drum named after it, see August Johan Bernet Kempers, "The Pejeng type," ''The Kettledrums of Southeast Asia: A Bronze Age World and Its Aftermath'' (Taylor & Francis, 1988), (327 )-340.〕 in Bali is the largest single-cast bronze kettle drum in the world.〔Iain Stewart and Ryan Ver Berkmoes, ''Bali & Lombok'' (Lonely Planet, 2007), (203 )〕 and "the largest known relic from Southeast Asia's Bronze Age period."〔Rita A. Widiadana, "(Get in touch with Bali's cultural heritage )," ''The Jakarta Post'' (06/06/2002).〕 It is "considered highly sacred by local people."〔Christopher Hill, ''Survival and Change: Three Generations of Balinese Painters'' (Pandanus, 2006), (3 ).〕 It is thought to be a relic of early rice cultivation rituals.
The drum is high and the diameter of the tympano is .〔 It is kept at Pura Penataran Sasih Temple in Pejeng, near Ubud,〔 in the Petauan River valley which, along with the adjacent Pakerisan River valley, forms the heartland of South Bali where complex irrigated rice culture first evolved on the island.〔

== History ==
The Dong Son people made the drum around 300 B.C.,〔Shona Grimbly, ''Encyclopedia of the Ancient World'' (Taylor & Francis, 2000), (137 ).〕 more than two thousand years ago.〔Yayasan Bumi Kita and Anne Gouyon, ''The Natural Guide to Bali: Enjoy Nature, Meet the People, Make a Difference'' (Tuttle Publishing, 2005), (109 )〕 According to Balinese legend, the Pejeng Moon was a wheel of the chariot that pulled the real moon through the night sky. One night, as the chariot was passing over Pejeng, the wheel detached and fell to earth, landing in a tree, where it glowed nearly as brightly as the real moon. This light disturbed a thief who, annoyed, climbed the tree and urinated on it; the thief paid for his sacrilege with his life. The moon eventually cooled and has been preserved as a sacred relic by the local villagers.〔
It is the largest and most complete type of drum known as the Pejeng type drums which have been found in Bali and Java, Indonesia.
The Pejeng Moon was first reported to the western world by G.E. Rumphius in his book ''The Ambonese Curiosity Cabinet'', published in 1705.〔 The Moon was first systematically described by the Dutch artist W.O.J. Nieuwenkamp who reproduced the famous face motif.〔
