Babad Pasek Kawitan Pasek Gelgel: The Ancestral Lineage from Kuntuliku to Majapahit-Era Bali
This Babad tells the origins of the Pasek Gelgel lineage, beginning with Ki Mpu Witadharma, who ruled Kuntuliku in East Java, and her descendants. The line branches when Ki Mpu Panabda migrates to Padang, while Mpu Pradah stays behind and is later known for his great mystical power. Seven generations after Panabda, Ki Pasek Gelgel, Ki Pasek Denpasar, and Ki Pangeran Tangkas are born. The story also follows Hyang Gnijaya's journey to moksa at Lempuyang, the arrival of Sang Kul Putih from Majapahit at Besakih, and Gajah Mada's campaign to subdue Dalem Beda-Danaya, followed by the division of authority (Mandesain) among Ki Pasek's descendants in Bali.
