A long land-locked bay on the north coast of east Sumbawa, the finest natural harbour between Java and Timor and the obvious place to break the voyage east (the campaign board).
Sumbawa sends out sappanwood for red dye, sulphur, honey and horses (the campaign board; Pires about 1515 lists cloth, horses, slaves and a red dyewood, en.wikipedia). No ruler is named for 1200; the Bima kingdom of the Bo chronicle and the sultanate of 1620 are later. Bima is a name in the Nagarakretagama (1365).
