Meanwhile, Tomé Pires, in his book Suma Oriental, said that "Pate Rodim" was the ruler of Demak who ruled the Palembang area.

Then, one source said that it is widely believed that the Demak Sultanate was founded in 1500 by a Chinese Muslim named Cek-ko-po or his son, Raden Patah.

According to Babad Tanah Jawi, Raden Patah is thought to have been the son of Brawijaya V [id], the last king of the Majapahit Empire of a Chinese concubine.

According to Babad Tanah Jawi, Raden Patah refused to replace Arya Damar [id] as Duke of Palembang.

According to Chinese chronicle of the Sam Poo Kong temple, Jin Bun moved from Surabaya to Demak in 1475.

However, thanks to the persuasion of Bong Swi Hoo (aka Sunan Ampel), Kung-ta-bu-mi was willing to acknowledge Jin Bun as a son, and formalized his position as regent at Bing-to-lo (Chinese spelling for Bintoro).

The Chinese chronicle of the Sam Poo Kong temple also reports the war between Jin Bun and Kung-ta-bu-mi in 1478.

Since then, Majapahit has been subordinate to Demak, led by a Chinese Muslim named Nyoo Lay Wa as the regent.

The war between Demak and Majapahit occurred during the reign of King Brawijaya VII, not during the time of Raden Fatah and Prabu Brawijaya V.[5] This Pa-bu-ta-la figure is identical to Prabu Natha Girindrawardhana [id] aka Dyah Ranawijaya who published the Jiyu inscription in 1486 and claimed to be the ruler of Majapahit, Janggala and Kadiri.

In addition, Dyah Ranawijaya [id] also issued a Petak inscription which tells the story of the war against Majapahit.

According to Babad Tanah Jawi, he has the title Senapati Jimbun Ningrat Ngabdurahman Panembahan Palembang Sayidin Panatagama, while according to Serat Pranitiradya, he has the title Sultan Syah Alam Akbar, and in Hikayat Banjar it is called Sultan Surya Alam.

The Sam Poo Kong Temple in Semarang was not forced back into a mosque, as it was when it was founded by the Muslim Admiral Cheng Ho.

Tome Pires in Suma Oriental reported that in 1507 Pate Rodin alias Raden Patah inaugurated the newly renovated Demak Grand Mosque.

The Pate Unus character is synonymous with Yat Sun in the Chinese chronicle which is reported to have attacked foreigners in Moa-lok-sa in 1512.

He was replaced by Yat Sun as the next king, who in Babad Tanah Jawi had the title Pangeran Sabrang Lor.
