Sejarah Melayu (English spelling)
A book that records the history of the Malacca Sultanate in Southeast Asia. The title of the book, "Sujara Melayu," means "The Lineage of Malay Kings," and was originally called "The Lineage of the Sultans," and was completed in its present form in 1612 by Bundahara of the Johor Sultanate. It is the most important work among the Malay classics. It begins with the origins of the Malacca Sultanate's royal lineage, which dates back to Alexander the Great, and covers the history of Malacca's founding, its golden age, and the collapse of the kingdom in 1511 due to an attack by Portugal. It is interspersed with numerous episodes centered on the Sultan's court, and legend and history unfold in a magnificent manner.
