Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cropped portion of China Sea, showing a large, 5-masted ship, identified as a jong (Javanese junk). It showed inaccuracies with the description of the jong of the time. The number of mast and sail suggest a size of 600-1000 tons deadweight, which could be attributed to jongs hailed from Java or Sunda. The image is clearly an attempt to depict a large Javanese or Sundanese junk. In the 16th century, average deadweight of jongs was 400-500 tons, they were equipped with 4 masts. Since there are crescent moon symbols that represents Islam, this jong must be hailed from the Demak Sultanate in Central Java. The kingdom of Sunda wasn't Islamized yet and that time.
Bahasa Indonesia: Bagian terpotong dari peta Laut Cina, menunjukkan kapal besar bertiang 5, diidentifikasi sebagai jong. Ini menunjukkan ketidakakuratan dengan deskripsi jong pada waktu itu. Jumlah tiang dan layarnya menunjukkan ukuran bobot mati 600-1000 ton, yang dapat dikaitkan dengan jong yang berasal dari Jawa atau Sunda. Gambar tersebut jelas merupakan upaya untuk menggambarkan sebuah jung besar Jawa atau Sunda. Pada abad ke-16 bobot mati rata-rata jong adalah 400-500 ton, mereka dilengkapi dengan 4 tiang layar. Karena ada simbol bulan sabit yang mewakili Islam, jong ini pasti berasal dari Kesultanan Demak di Jawa Tengah. Kerajaan Sunda pada waktu itu belum masuk Islam.
