The story told about the temptation between love and war, Prabu Kelanasenwandana the king of Bantarangin against Prabu Singabarong the king of Lodaya, they attempt and compete to gain Dewi Sanggalangit. The word "Sunanate" or "Kasunanan" (Javanese) was originally derived from Javanese root word "sunan" which means "the honored/admired/respected". This title is given by the Javanese and Sundanese to rulers, clerics and some even deities. A common usage is for the Nine Saints (Wali Songo), who were the spreaders of Islam in Java.
