In the fourteenth century, during the flourishing period of Majapahit we get a unique poem, the Nāgara-Kṛtāgama¹ written by Prapañca in A.D. 1365. Unlike the usual poems based on the Indian epics, it takes as its theme the life and times of Hayam Wuruk, the famous king of Majapahit, and supplies us most interesting information about the king, his capital city, his court, and his vast empire.
