History of Nasi Tumpeng
The early times
in the early days, javanese people made food in big portions called nasi tumpeng.
they picked the rice and shape it like a cone because since they are in java, they made it based on the geographical condition in Java island which has many mountiain.
But, since the hindu and buddha religions spread trough java, the javanese people are too affected to hindu and buddha religion. They thought that the cone-shaped rice mimics the holy mountain, Mahameru mountain. From hindu and buddha religions, the ancestors stayed on the peak of the mountain.
Since then, they expressed the meaning of the rice as the system of the universe. So its spread across java and near it but it never spread nationally.
The new age
since after the independence day, they made an event called tumpengan there they made a giant Nasi Tumpeng that was more then 200 portions. Then, Nasi Tumpeng spread over indonesia.
But, because there was instability between the meat and vegetables in Nasi Tumpeng, they changed it. Then Nasi Tumpeng spread internationally but the philosophy, meaning and cultural value stayed within indonesia
