Through the medium of Old Javanese or Early Kawi, it has been proven that the Balinese language is derived from the Palava script of South India; Bali today provides scholars with dues about India's past religious life, clues which long ago vanished in India itself.

JAVANESE INFLUENCE

The Warmadewa Dynasty ( 10th - 12th Centuries)
Bali came under the influence of Javanese kings from the earliest days of Hinduism in Java, and the island was conquered by the first documented king of Central Java, Sanjaya (c.730). during Java's Mataram Dynasty. After the Balinese Warmadewa family's dynastic link with Java was established, court decrees were thereafter issued in the Old Javanese language of Kawi and Balinese sculptural and other artistic styles began to resemble those practiced in East Java. Bali's way of life was well defined by the early 10th century; by than the Balinese were practicing a sophisticated wet rice irrigation, livestock breeding, stone and woodcarving, metalworking, roof thatching. canoe building, even cockfighting. The Balinese of the time were locked into a feudal genealogical and territorial bondage. They were subjects of an autocratic Hinduized ruler, the regional Balinese prince, who himself acknowledge the sovereignty of a Javanese overlord.

Airlangga
In the 10th century, as the center of power shifted from Central to East Java, the marriage of tie Balinese Prince Udayana of the Warmadewa Dynasty and the East Javanese Princess Mahendradatta in A-D. 989 led to closer cooperation between Java and Bali for the 12 years of Udayana's rule and beyond. Airlangga was born to the royal couple around 1001. As a young man, the prince was sent to Java for his education. There, Airlangga married a princess and become a local chief in the kingdom of his uncle Dharma Wangsa. Shortly after-his arrival, the ruler was murdered and Airlangga ascended to the throne, becoming one of the most glorious monarchs in Java's history. The dynasty he put in place lasted for more than 300 years. As befits hero, Airlangga ultimately renounced the kingdom he had made greed and died a her-it around 1049 under the guidance of his spiritual adviser.

in Bali we must point out a very important distinction which the Balinese make between two clearly separate groups of ancestors. The first of these groups consists of the dead who are riot yet completely purified. This group is in turn subdivided in pirata, those riot yet cremated, and pitara, those already cremated. The former are still completely impure; the latter have been purified, but are still considered as distinct, individual souls. The second group consists of the completely purified ancestors who are considered as divine.
No contact is sought with the pirata, the dead who have not yet been cremated. Oil the contrary they are dangerous, Offerings must however be made for the redemption of their souls.
