Description of manuscript content:
The text contains a 60-page table of the 30 seven-day weeks (wuku) and the days in each wuku. It also talks about the weeks that got their names. At the end are the various terms used in divination such as palelanusan (auspicious day) as a result of combinations of days and wukus. For instance, the auspicious day in the wuku Sinta falls on the day combination of the seven-day week (saptawara) Monday and the day of the five-day week (pancawara) Pon.
