The fourth Sultan of the Demak Sultanate (r. 1546–1549), son of Sultan Trenggana. He moved the capital to the hill of Prawoto (today Prawoto village, Sukolilo, Pati, Central Java) and was noted for favoring religious scholarship over statecraft, bearing the title "Sunan" (id.wikipedia, "Sunan Prawoto"; official Pati Regency tourism site). He was assassinated in 1549 by Rangkud, an agent of his cousin Arya Penangsang. Scholars dispute whether his grave is at Prawoto or within the Great Mosque of Demak (Thaqafiyyat journal, UIN Sunan Kalijaga); no pin is given as precise coordinates could not be verified.
