| Description |
English: Cow cart; ancient vehicles for carrying goods (kalang) in Java, ancestors of contemporary cikar and pedati. This carriage is being pulled by white bulls.
Excerpt from book: We followed the post-road, which acts as a kind of outlet to the network of roads in the interior, and on which there is a great deal of traffic ; on either sides is a path, one reserved for carts, the other for beasts of burden. These carts, of antediluvian shape, have wheels made of the section of a trunk of the teak tree, and are covered with a bamboo roof, to protect the wares they carry. They are drawn by yokes of pink oxen, and go one behind another in convoys of fifty or sixty; while to our left are caravans of at least five hundred pack horses. The activity and commercial movement are as great as the modes of transport are primitive. Bahasa Indonesia: Gerobak sapi; kendaraan kuno pengangkut barang (kalang) di Jawa, nenek moyang cikar dan pedati masa kini. Kereta ini ditarik oleh sapi jantan putih. Dari buku: Kami mengikuti jalan pos (jalan Daendels), yang berfungsi sebagai semacam jalan keluar ke jaringan jalan di pedalaman, dan di mana terdapat banyak lalu lintas; di kedua sisi ada jalan, satu disediakan untuk gerobak, yang lain untuk binatang penarik. Gerobak ini, bentuknya kuno, beroda dari bagian batang pohon jati, dan ditutup dengan atap bambu, untuk melindungi barang dagangan yang mereka bawa. Mereka ditarik oleh kuk lembu merah muda, dan pergi satu sama lain dalam konvoi berjumlah lima puluh atau enam puluh; sedangkan di sebelah kiri kami adalah karavan kuda yang terdiri dari sedikitnya lima ratus kuda penarik. Aktivitas dan pergerakan komersial ini besar tetapi dengan moda transportasi yang primitif. |
