Wayang kulit itself is a high-value cultural wealth because besides being an art, wayang kulit performances are able to combine various kinds of arts such as literature, music, and fine arts. Literary art from pupuh spoken by dalang, Music art from various names of traditional musical instruments, and art from wayng skin visualization that is unique and distinctive to Indonesian culture

The history of wayang kulit is inseparable from the history of wayang art in general. When viewed from the historical record, there is no concrete evidence of the existence of wayang culture before the first century. This coincides with the entry of Hindu and Buddhist culture into Southeast Asia. This hypothesis is further strengthened by the fact that the majority of the shadow puppets perform the story of Ramayana and Mahabarata. Although it is also not a standard that can bind the puppeteer. Because in every performance the puppeteer may make a show of carangan play (composition)

like this a short story from the history of wayang kulit that I know and art is a pride for Indonesian culture
