In the archipelago’s ancient story, several women popped up to show their existence and courage to be up against palogocentric’s society. They are Kunti, Sawitri, and Pembayun who conquered the power of patriarch’s society. Sawitri, for example, dared to sue the power of the gods. Kunti mastered the science of summoning gods. Thanks to Pembayun, Ki Ageng Mangir was successfully subdued. Prof. Dr. Suminto A Sayuti added in his presentation that the roots of feminism have been stuck for a long time on the archipelago.
