During the Anglo-Dutch Java War, Great Britain conquered Java island in 1811 and Raffles was appointed as lieutenant governor of Java until 1816. Raffless has great interests on Java antiquities, including some Hindus and Buddhist temples in Java. Prambanan has been listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1991.
