The Ceto (Indonesian:Candi Ceto) is a fifteenth-centuryJavanese-Hindu temple that is located on the western slope ofMount Lawu (elev. 1495 m above sea level) on the border betweenCentral andEast Java provinces.
Cetho is one of several temples built on the northwest slopes ofMount Lawu in the fifteenth century. By this time, Javanese religion and art had diverged from Indian precepts that had been so influential on temple styles during the 8th-10th century. This area was the last significant area of temple building in Java before the island's courts were converted to Islam in the 16th century. The temples' distinctiveness and the lack of records of Javanese ceremonies and beliefs of the era make it difficult for historians to interpret the significance of these antiquities.[1]
It is close toSukuh temple.
