 History of Batik Indonesia has a long history with batik as the work and culture. Embryo are the writings and paintings on palm leaf that has existed since the seventeenth century. Long history that makes

batik works can be found not only in Java, but also Sumatra, Kalimantan, Maluku, Papua even. In Javanese, batik is known since the Majapahit and thrive in the kingdom of Mataram. From the work done in the palace, batik developed into an ordinary house.
