Papandayan, name of a mountain in the Preangër Regencies. South South East from 

 Bandung, generally called Papan Dayang , though the correct word is Papandayan , 

 the place of the blacksmiths, from Pandai or Pandé, a blacksmith. Mr. Friederich 

 has heard the mountain very distinctly called Papandayan, by the natives in its im- 

 mediate neighbourhood. In Ivawi the word is written Pandai or Panday , of which 

 there are more sitnilar examples. It has been changed, in the colloquial language, into 

 Pandé. Panda, Clough 353, is wisdom, understanding, science, learning. Pandita, 

 Clough 353, learned, erudite, well informed in scholastic and theological study. Black- 

 smiths or workmen in iron have, in early ages, been looked upon as learned men, 

 and hence in Java, till this day, a blacksmith is called a Pandé. These men well 

 deserved the title amongst a people who, till the arrival of Hindus amongst them, 

 knew not the use of iron , but made use of stone wedges for the purpose of cutting. 

 A similarity of thought must have prevailed with the native when he named a vol- 

 canic mountain a Papandayan, or%blacksmith , s shop, as with the ancients of Europe 

 when the}'- applied the name Volcano to a mountain in a state of eruption; which word 

 is generally supposed to be derived from Vulcan , the god of subterraneous fire, who 

 was also reputed for his skill in blacksmitlfs work , in fabricating armour.
