Jawa Pesisir Lor of Indonesia
The Jawa Pesisir Lor are known to express their convictions with action and emotion, not just words. Many view traditional Jawa culture as backward and are proud of what they consider to be their more modern worldview and stronger Islamic commitment. Most Jawa Pesisir Lor people consider sacred the graves of two holy men, Sunan Kalijaga and Sunan Ja'far Shodiq. People come to both of these graves to worship and to seek blessing.
