Inscribed stones of 1030 set up by Sri Jayabhupati, king of Sunda, to protect a stretch of river where no one was to fish (the campaign board; the date, Saka 952, is checked on en.wikipedia).
They are the last dated Sundanese inscription of a king before the fourteenth century, and therefore the last hard ground under the kingdom. The campaign board says two stones; how many survive was not checked. The gazetteer has no match, so the coordinates are the campaign board's (Cibadak, Sukabumi).
