Destruction of Majapahit

Regardless of the myth Ox Sura , the three regions mentioned in the curse was eventually destroyed . Historians estimate that the eruption in 1586 killed more than 10,000 people is the end of the history of the Kingdom of Majapahit .

Yes , historical records mention the Majapahit kingdom thought to have collapsed in the range of 1478 numbers . https://droidstars.com/top-10-free-word-games-android/2986/ However , historians today also recognize there are still many who have not been disclosed about the history of the kingdom, such as Majapahit alleged two at one time .

What to do with Kelud ? Of course eruptions .
Before the eruption in 2007 , at least since the early 1900s century is known that Kelud crater has a lake . Unless eruption in 2007 , also known type of explosive eruptions , including the eruption on Thursday ( 02/13/2014 ) night .

In an interview the former head of the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation ( PVMBG ) Geological Agency, Ministry of Energy , Natural Resources , and Mineral ( EMR ) Surono said the existence of this crater lake in the same danger with a burst of solid material from the eruption .

Surono is on Friday ( 02/14/2014 ) appointed as Head of Geological Agency , said the burst of water from the crater lake , if still available, can reach about 37.5 kilometers . Already hot water , mixed magma , is combined with a hundred million tons of solid material is ejected .

Roughly , because there is no historical record , that's what happens in an eruption in 1586 . However , nor was any eruption which caused casualties reached more than 10,000 inhabitants . Impact after the eruption , not less bad .

This is then suspected as the cause really paripurnanya history of Majapahit kingdom , shut diverse internal political conflict that era , as well as a curse legend Ox Sura .

As an illustration , the eruption in 1919 that in fact relatively modern compared to conditions in 1586 , was also killed thousands of people . Figure recorded was 5,160 people . The eruption in 1919 is what started the resumption of development efforts tunnel in the mountains 1,731 meters altitude it.

The tunnels have been used for reducing the volume of water in the crater lake . The oldest record of the efforts to reduce the impact of molten lava , magma and water combined boiling lake , was " born " Harinjing River now known as River Village Sarinjing Siman , District Kepung , Kediri . This river is a diversion from the Konto River .

Attendance is recorded in the inscription Serinjing River Village Harinjing Siman . In the inscription , known also as the Sukabumi inscription , written numbers in 921 AD There is told about the construction of dams and rivers that began the first time in 804 AD kelud mountains , tunnels
