The "de" in Jabo detabek refers to Depok , while the word "depok" itself comes from Sundanese language meaning hermitage or abode of one living in seclusion. There is also a saying that the Depok word is an acronym of De Eerste Protestants Onderdaan Kerk. Before his death, Chastelein had written a will that freed the slave families of Depok and gave them pieces of his land, converting slaves into landlords. The 12 original Depok family names are: -Bacas -Isakh -Jacob -Jonathan -Joseph -Laurens -Leander -Loen -Sadokh -Samuel -Soedira -Tholense. The original slave families of Depok are of Balinese, Ambonese, Buginese, Sundanese and Portuguese Indo, i.e., Mestizo and Mardijker descent. Isakh, Jacob, Jonathans, Joseph, and Samuel were family names baptized by Chastelein after the slave families converted to Protestant Christianity. ...
