The history of pottery in Cirebon is believed to begin during the Cirebon Sultanate in the 15th century. This pottery craft center is located in Sitiwinangun village, Jamblang sub-district, about 15 kilometers to the west of Cirebon City center. Sheikh Dinureja, a Muslim scholar whose real name was Ki Mas Ratna Gumilang, spread Islam and introduced pottery-making skills in Sitiwinangun land, which was originally named Padukuhan Kebagusan. He played a role in improving the standard of living of Sitiwinangun villagers. The name Sitiwinangun itself has a meaning that is closely related to the pottery craft. The word Sitiwinangun consists of the words ‘siti’ which means land, and ‘winangun’ which means built. Remembering that pottery is clay that is built or shaped.
