Curcuma longa

I obtained this specimen from the wet markets in Indonesia as temulawak (curcuma xanthorriza) but it is unfortunate that latter turn out to be a curcuma longa. The rhizomes found in Indonesia can of deep, matured yellow color compared to the usual orange hue of curcuma longa rhizomes found in Malaysia.
