Original text on this topic:
According to tradition, a rhinoceros was seen in the residency of Rembang in olden days. In the western part of the district Ngawen [=Ngawi, 7.25 S, 111.26E], on the border of the residencies Rembang and Semarang, south of the Bandoel in the midst of a Djati-forest, there is a dried-up waterhole, which formerly received water from a spring, where the rhinoceros would have lived. - Rembang, north coast, 6.42 S, 111.21 E
