Summary
| Description |
English: The label reads: Bedil naga (dragon cannon) This piece is of Indonesian origin and was manufactured between 1630 and 1680. Guns of this type were used by South East Asian pirates as late as the 19th century. It is purported to have been found on the Great Barrier Reef approximately 100 years ago. Its discovery may indicate that Asian vessels visited the coastline of eastern Australia prior to Cook's (en: James Cook) voyage.
