Jayakatwang rebellion was a rebellion that occurred in 1292, due to Jayakatwang's ambition to become king and past grudges where his ancestor, Kertajaya, was defeated by the ancestor of Kertanagara, Ken Arok. Various Old Javanese records such as Nagarakretagama, Pararaton, Kidung Harsawijaya, and Kidung Panji Wijayakrama mention that Jayakatwang was a subordinate king in Kadiri who rebelled against Kertanagara's power in Singhasari.
