“…Based on the picture above, we can see that the roof is made of nipa leaves. At that time almost the entire area around the mosque was full of nipah leaves: According to data presented by Budi (2006), for mosques built between the 15th and 19th centuries, the majority were square-shaped, and more than 50% had four main pillars as the primary construction located in the center of the main hall. These four main pillars are called Soko Guru.…”
