Called Si Jaguar the Dutch nicked this from the Portuguese in Melaka. Women used to come to it to seek blessings and fertility though at least one woman was not so happy. She asked for a child for her daughter but it seems the message got mixed up for soon after indeed her daughter did get pregnant but it was the wrong daughter. The married one stayed barren while the unmarried one produced. Bloody cannons eh?
