$ apt-cache search j2sdk

j2sdk1.4 - Blackdown Java(TM) 2 SDK, Standard Edition
$ dpkg-query --showformat="\${version}\n" --show j2sdk1.4

It was part of the old Netscape Java SDK. It was included in the Java

$ jar tf /usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/lib/plugin.jar | grep netscape/javascript/JSObject
netscape/javascript/JSObject.class
