Wayang golekEdit
?
Pair of wayang golek from West Java.
In the Wayang golek [9] three-dimensional wooden dolls are used that are operated from below by means of rods or rods, and are shown directly to the public without a curtain. They generally have two rods that connect with the hands, plus another central one attached to the head. There is no certainty about the origin of these types of puppets, but scholars speculate that they were brought from China sometime in the 17th century.
The style was predominantly developed on the north coast of Java,
