This is because  the golden armlet was found when evacuating Fort Canning Hill ,which  was then known as  Bukit Larangan,as the British was digging to build a reservoir. The armlet bears a repoussé plaque of the Javanese kala, a protective symbol which traditionally adorns the top of main entrances of temples, and is still found in many parts of Indonesia.Showing that there was political connections during the Majapahit Empire.
