Kauman

Kauman is a typical village name used by some regencies and municipalities in Central and East Java to name an area where pious Muslim communities are concentrated.

Some etymologistsWho|date=July 2007 assume the name Kauman is an abbreviation of "kaum iman" meaning "faithful/pious people".
