Javanesse Alfabeth

Javanese alphabet being used 

Javanese and Balinese are modern variants of the old Kawi script, a Brahmic script introduced to Java along with Hinduism and Buddhism. Kawi is first attested in a legal document from 804 CE. It was widely used in literature and translations from Sanskrit from the tenth century; by the seventeenth, the script is identified as carakan. A Latin orthography based on Dutchwas introduced in 1926, revised in 1972–1973, and has largely supplanted the carakan.
Currently, there are no newspapers or magazines being printed in the Javanese script. However it is still taught in mostelementary school and some junior high school as of compulsory subject in Javanese language areas.

the Nine Walis

09.47 | Label:

The nine walis were Sufi teachers who spread Islam and did all variety of powerful and unusual acts across Java. The histories of these men are not always clear. In fact, if you try to count all of them, you will end up with more than nine. Some sources say that there was more than one group of nine. The most probable explanation is that there was a loose council of nine religious leaders, and that as older members retired or passed away, new members were brought into this council.
