History of the kingdom of Pasumayan Koto Batu, 1st – 5th century

The kingdom of Pasumayan Koto Batu was the first traditional kingdom in Minangkabau region. This kingdom had its administrative center in the region around the slopes of Mount Merapi, which became known as Pariangan and Padang Panjang.
In the first century AD, there had been a migration of people from the Indian subcontinent (South India) to the island Percha (Sumatra island) and was established a kingdom, called the kingdom Pasumayan Koto Batu, around the slopes of Mount Merapi. The king was titled Sri Maha- Dirajo, the queen was Puti Indo Jolito and their child was Sutan Maharajo Basa who later became known as Datuk Ketumanggungan. After the death of Sri Maha- Dirajo he replaced by Datuk Suri Dirajo, while the  wife of Sri Maha Dirajo remarried with Cati Bilang Pandai and gave birth to three children: Sutan Balun, Sutan Bakilap Alam, dan Puti Jamilan. Sutan Balun became known as Datuk Perpatih Nan Sebatang.
