Kuripan

Kuripan lies beside the Barito River in the wet lowlands of southern Borneo. The #italic Hikayat Banjar#! tells of a merchant, Mpu Jatmika, who founded the kingdom of Dipa and made Kuripan its capital. Scholars have suggested that the Kuripan of this tradition may lie in the Barito country. River channels here join the great Barito to the neighboring Negara basin, linking the inland settlements with the coast.
