Gadjamina, Gaja minah, or Eon is an elephant-headed mythical creature with the body of a fish. The term is derived from the Sanskrit words gaja गज "elephant" and mīna मीन "fish".[1] It is used for patulangan sarcophagi in Bali, Indonesia.[2] The form is used for members of the Shudra caste[2] as well as the Kshatriya caste.[citation needed]
Gajahmina is the name of a Balinese constellation (lintang) that corresponds to the Western constellation Cetus.[1]
