Monumental Bali describes a formative period in Balinese history through a study of the island's fascinating antiquities.

This classic work provides the key to understanding Bali's most famous monuments, including the "Elephant Cave" near Ubud, the "Royal Tombs" at Gunung Kawi, and the spectacular "Mother Temple" at Besakih. A comprehensive Guide to the Monuments section contains:

  • Detailed Maps

  • Over one Hundred Beautiful Color Photographs

In 1956 Dr. and Mrs. Bernet Kempers returned to the Netherlands and began working in both Indonesian and European studies. Between 1958 and 1971, Dr. Bernet Kempers was director of the Netherlands Open Air Museum in Amhem, and was for a time professor of European Ethnology at the University of Amsterdam. Between 1970 and 1948 he revised Indonesian (including Bali) regularly in connection with research into ancient monuments and archaeological preservation.
