<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TuckHard, post: 3940242, member: 102653&quot;]I&#039;m not sure if it&#039;s the best term (or if there&#039;s a better term, I was told the &quot;Malay Archipelago&quot; is not a favorable term by Indonesians), but I define it as the maritime kingdom powers of Southeast Asia; so the kingdoms of Sumatra (Srivijaya and Melayu), Java (Mataram, Kediri, Majapahit, etc), and the Philippines (Ma-i). Here is the most common piece of the maritime kingdoms, the silver Sandalwood massa. I still haven&#039;t discovered the exact era / kingdom that made my example but it is a Javanese variety. I&#039;m still doing research but it&#039;s a pretty confusing history.</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]1038686[/ATTACH] </p> <p style="text-align: center">AR Massa</p> <p style="text-align: center">Late 700s-Early 1300s</p> <p style="text-align: center">Java</p> <p style="text-align: center">Obv: Incused Sandalwood</p> <p style="text-align: center">Rev: Ma</p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
