Abstract: The Old Javanese language has experienced a long journey. This journey can be seen from several manuscripts that have been found. Javanese language shows a development of language from time to time. This shows that in the Old Javanese language and in the Old Javanese manuscripts there is a history. It is very important for the study of past Indonesian culture. The aim of this research is to get an overview of the development of the language stored in drama manuscripts from time to time as well as an overview of the history of the language and manuscripts as depicted in the discovered manuscripts. There are three periodization of Javanese language. Each periodization left manuscripts preserved in various places. In the manuscripts, there is also a historical background that we can see to this day. For example, the Ramayana kakawin left historical traces in the form of reliefs of Prambanan Temple that took stories from the Ramayana. This shows that the Ramayana in the past was a story that was very popular and appreciated. During the Central Java period, a type of literary work emerged that was colored with elements that were often referred to as kidung. Various materials of this hymn still take from Indian stories, but nevertheless have undergone modifications. Because of their vastness and long distances, the current manuscripts require a rescue conservation.
