Java The Legend of Myth
Kebo Anabrang # Buffalo Crossing
Mahesa Anabrang, also known as Anabrang buffalo and Anabrang Cow, is a centurion of the Singasari Kingdom sent to establish friendship with the Malay kingdom, and is known as Pamalayu Expedition..
In 1275 Kertanagara king Singhasari sent troops to conquer the Dharmasraya Kingdom on the island of Sumatra. This troop delivery is known as Pamalayu Expedition. The name of Pamalayu Expedition commander was found in Song of Panji Wijayakrama, Mahisa Anabrang, which means "buffalo crossing".
It is certain that this is not the real name. The author of the song also does not know for sure what the commander's real name is. Pamalayu expeditions gained success. Nagarakretagama recorded Malays entering the Singhasari colony list in addition to Bali, Pahang, Desert and Bakulapura
