According to Raffles in his book History of Jaca, Bedhaya dancers used to be concubines. In Wrido Pradonggo, it appears that every regent or abdi dalem from each kingdom/sultanate would present their daughter or granddaughter to be part of the nine Bedhaya dancers as an act of solidarity in the kingdom. </em></p><p><em>It was mentioned in Wrido Pradonggo that the nine leaders represented the nine pillars of the kingdom, and each Bedhaya dance was a reminder of their merit.
