KINGDOM OF PANEMBAHAN SAMBAS
History of the kingdom of Panembahan Sambas, 15th century – 1671
Since the 7th century there were Hindu kingdoms on Sambas region, which controled the Sambas River region and its surroundings. These kingdoms are also called “Old kingdom of Sambas”.
These kingdoms were:
* Kingdom of Wijaya Pura 7th – 9th century
* Kingdom of Nek Riuh, around 13th – 14th century
* Kingdom of Tan Unggal around the 15th century
* Kingdom of Panembahan Sambas, 15thcentury – 1671
After 1671 there is the Sultanate of Sambas (until today).
These kingdoms were purely Hindu-Buddhist, Sambas was the last kingdom in the north of West Kalimantan. After the collapse of Panembahan Sambas in Kota Lama, a new Kingdom appeared: the Sambas Sultanate with Raden Sulaiman as the first Sultan of Sambas Sultan Shafiuddin I Sultan in 1671.
After building a settlement in the upper reaches of the Sambas River, a group of refugee nobles established a kingdom called Panembahan Sambas. There was no obstacle to establishing a new kingdom, because the previous kingdom of the Tan Unggal kingdom has been buried with its king.
The first king of the kingdom of Panembahan Sambas was the father of the unknown Queen Timbang Paseban. After the king died, Ratu Timbang Paseban was then appointed as heir to the throne. From Ratu Timbang Paseban then the throne descended to his sister Ratu Sapudak. The term queen is a Javanese habit of mentioning which has the same meaning as male kings. So the queen is not meant to be a female king.
After the collapse of the kingdom of Panembahan Sambas in Kota Lama, a new kingdom was established, namely the Sambas sultanate with Raden Sulaiman being the first Sultan of Sambas with the title Sultan Muhammad Shafiuddin I in 1671.
