“Cleaning Offal in the River Becomes an Eid al-Adha Tradition in Depok”

Depok is a city in West Java, Indonesia, originally established in the 17th century as a private estate by Cornelis Chastelein, a Dutch colonial official. It later became a center for Christian converts and developed into an educational and residential hub. Today, Depok is part of the Greater Jakarta metropolitan area, known for its universities, such as the University of Indonesia, and its mix of urban and suburban landscapes.

The Pitara area, located in the western part of New South Wales, Australia, is a culturally significant site for the Aboriginal Ngiyampaa people. Historically, it served as an important meeting place and ceremonial ground, rich in traditional stories and rock art. Today, it remains a vital part of Indigenous heritage, reflecting the deep spiritual connection to the land.
