Melayu (English spelling)

Japanese: ムラユ(英語表記)Melayu
Melayu (English spelling)
A country that arose in the late 7th century in Turanaipura (Jambi) on the east coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. It is also called Malayu. For a long time it was under the control of the neighboring Srivijaya Kingdom, but became powerful in the 13th century. In Chinese documents it is written as Su Luo Yu or Mara Yu, and in the late 11th century it paid tribute to the Song Dynasty as the country of Xianbei. A statue of Amulet Lasso, presented to King Melayu by King Kertanagara of Java in 1286, was discovered in the upper reaches of the Hari River. Sumatran Hindu culture left this country and entered the Islamic cultural sphere.
