 Another Jatinegara, an administrative village in Cakung, has no known historic connection to Jatinegara in Jakarta.The name Jatinegara is derived from "Jatina Nagara", Malay for "the might of the state", symbolizing the resistance of the princes of Banten in their fight against the Dutch East India Company.Local lore claims that, sometime in the 17th century, Jatinegara became home to a settlement of Bantenese princes and their followers.
