The new emovations from the excavation included Ratna or the roof of the temple, as well as foot-shaped statues. But officials have not been able to identify the statue in its full form. Because only the foot was found, he said when confirmed on Wednesday (2/26/2020). Aryadi said, the temple plan is rectangular in shape. The rectangular floor plan is interesting, because it is different from the general temple floor plan in Dieng.
Another rectangular temple in Dieng is the Semar temple. But according to Aryadi, there are different forms between this new temple and Semar temple. Like the findings of other temples, this new temple must be named. Aryadi said, the name Kunti appeared when the research team discussed the naming of the newly discovered temple. The idea of naming the Kunti Temple sparked from the mind of the Dieng Temple Unit Head Eri Budhiarto. According to Aryadi, Kunti is suitable to name the temple. In the wayang story, Dewi Kunti is the mother of the Pandavas. The names of the Pandavas have been used to name other temples in the Arjuna Temple complex. So it is appropriate if Kunti's name as the mother of the Pandavas is embedded in this new temple. Moreover, the Kunti temple is on the slope of Pangonan Hill, which is located higher than where the other temples are located. So it's as if Kunti is watching over her children. Because the place is higher, he said.
