748 CE to 759 CE

The Taruma and Sunda kingdoms of western Java had appeared in the fourth and seventh centuries respectively.

However, the first major principality is the Indianized Medang Kingdom, founded in central Java in the mid-eighth century.

Medang's religion centers on the Hindu god Shiva, and the kingdom produces some of Java's earliest Hindu temples on the Dieng Plateau.
