Sultan Agung of Mataram

Sultan Agung of Mataram or Sultan Agung Anyokrokusumo or Sultan Agung Hanyokrokusumo (Ha and A are both written using the same character in Javanese script) was the Sultan of Mataram in Central Java from 1613-1645. He commissioned the building of the Karta Palace in 1614, and the Royal Graveyard of Imogiri.

Sultan Agung (literally, "Great Sultan" or "Majestic Sultan") is subject of a substantial amount of literature due to his legacy as a Javanese ruler, a fighter of Dutch colonialists (In the form of the Dutch East India Company), and his existence within a cultural framework where myth and magic are well intertwined with verifiable historical events and personages. Agung was responsible for the great expansion and lasting historical legacy of Mataram due to extensive military conquests during his long reign.
