It is famous for the ruins of stone Hindu temples dating from the Hindu Javanese period, from the 7th to the 13th century, scattered over an area of about 2km square. Dieng means "seat of the gods" in Sanskrit, and is a sacred place associated with the ancient Mataram dynasty, which began with King Sanjaya. It has been excavated several times since 1864, and as a result, inscriptions and statues of gods dating from 809 to 1210, as well as the remains of halls and dwellings, have been discovered.
