Opinions about the origin of the name of Minangkabau is very diverse. Some are derived from folklore, which is a growing opinion by word of mouth. There is also the origin of the name contained in the Tambo Minangkabau Minangkabau Nature.
Because of the growing, research is also conducted by experts. Good historians, experts Sociology, Anthropology, and others. So that from this study also revealed a number of words that became the origin of the name of Minangkabau in the opinion of these experts. Until now has not been established by clear where the origin of the actual name of the Minangkabau.
However, with increasing human intelligence, then the opinion that more people believe is the origin of the name Minangkabau according to these experts. Because this opinion has gone through the process of research which is also corroborated evidence by passing the process of scientific studies that are based on approaches that could be accounted for in accordance with scientific references.
Here are some of the origin of the name of Minangkabau in the opinion of the experts are:
WORD FROM Minanga TAMWAN
Prof.Dr.Poerbacaraka Minangkabau say that the name derives from the language that is Minanga Tamwan Sangsekerta. These words are contained in the inscription Kedukan Mount.
Kedukan Bukit Inscription is an inscription which tells the story of Tamwan Minanga territorial expansion. Namely the expansion of the region that started from the victory of King Minanga Tamwan envoy led Datuk Cribijaya (Dt.Sibijayo, Commander of War Minanga Tamwan) against the Pirates are a lot of disturbing people around Palembang River (River Musi) now.
In this inscription is mentioned, among others,
"The Pertuan Hyang off twenty laksa
soldiers from Minanga Tamwan led
Cribijaya (Dt.Sibijayo) through a sacred journey,
with the aim of expanding the state until
bring prosperity. "
All this is set forth in his book History of Indonesia Prof.Dr.Poerbacaraka I. It's just where is the area Minanga Tamwan it, is still being debated. According keterengan Prof.Dr.Poerbacaraka called Minanga Tamwan it is a region that lies between the two Great River meet.
Some experts suspect that there are two major rivers that are the Kampar Left and Right Kampar. But if the question is the Kampar River Left and Right Kampar, then most likely the area around Barelang.
According to the author's own research and study with Community
Sejarahawan Indonesia (MSI) LUHAK Limopuluah (Yulfian Azrial, et al, 2003), Minanga Tamwan may not intended as a meeting between two great rivers physically. Because the physical confluence of more commonly known as the estuary rather than Minanga Tamwan.
But Minanga Tamwan could actually show a region or area that became the meeting place of two great rivers. This is because the main highways of our society in ancient times the river.
So if we see from the map, two major rivers in central Sumatra island region is only one, the area contained between the Hulu Sungai Kampar with Batang Sinamar (Kuantan / Indragiri). This area is located between maek and Mungka. Precisely that is the Mount of the Moon Stone in Nagari Gutters Mauá.
This area is also located just a short distance from the Equator line. Then when viewed from the origin of language he said according to Tamil, the word is derived from the word Gutters Ta which means big and Lang are airports. So Gutters mean big airports.
The existence of Bukit Batu This month can be described as follows: One side down to Kampar in maek rods, while the other side of the trunk down to the kehilirnya Sinamar was known also as the Trunk Kuantan or Indragiri River.
On top of this hill there are several sites that are major trading centers such as the former aspect Pokan Akad, Ranah Pokan Tuesday, Ranah Pokan Komih, Ronah Pokan Friday, Saturday Pokan aspect, etc..
This place certainly never bring merchants who rose from two major rivers, namely that rises through the stem and Kampar and the rise of the Batang Kuantan (Indragiri). But to ensure this is still needed further research.
WORD FROM Pinang KHABU
Prof.Van der Tuuk, a professor of Dutch nationality saying that the Minangkabau is Khabu Pinang. That land base, land of origin or ancestral lands .. This opinion is also corroborated by the statement of Thomas Stanford Raffles, a British national who had served in the British Governor-General of Indonesia in 1811 until 1818.
This statement contained in his statement after making explorations into various corners of the village and the forests in the region of Central Sumatra. In a note Raffles states that: ".... Here we find traces of a great empire (Minangkabau) whose names are scarcely known to us at all, but a very real place of origin is the Malay nations are scattered in the archipelago. "
To facilitate this we remember the journey Raffles, name Raflesia flower is one of a memento to capture the natural exploration of Raffles are conducted. Raflesia point which is the name for a kind of giant flowers that are found by Raffles. In the aspect Minang we used to call it by Bunge carcass.
The statement that the Minangkabau is a land of origin is also supported by many facts and data. Moreover, all ethnic Malays historically originated from Minangkabau. Like the Malay Riau, Jambi, Deli, Aceh, Palembang, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, and Bugis. Even the Kubu tribe, Sakai, Talang Mamak, Tribe Kids Sea in the Strait of Malacca, etc., purporting to be from Minangkabau.
Other evidence of this recognition such as a carved inscription on the tomb of Sultan Series Tajuddin in Brunei, among others, reads as follows:
"The series ordered to Mr. Tajuddin Sultan Haji Abdul Latif Khatib explained that this lineage is known to posterity, the king who had a royal throne in the State Brunai Darussalam hereditary to heritage nobat ¬ take the address of the state and country clapper Johor Kamalul Maqam , who took the heirloom nobat countries and address of the Minangkabau villages Andalas ... etc. ".
Parasasti illustrates that the Malays in Peninsular Malaysia is now also originated from the Minangkabau. For example, as in Johor, Selangor, Malacca, Pahang, etc.. Even to the most recent generation, namely the then inhabited Affairs IX. Historically, most of them are crossing the Straits of Malacca after passing through the flow Trunk and Trunk Rokan Kampar.
WORD FROM Menon Cobos
According Prof.Dr.Muhamad Nainar Hussein, a professor at the University of Madras. He said the word originated from the Minangkabau Menon said Cobos.
Menon Cobos means the land of noble or pure land. Regarded as a pure land or land glorious in this area is also considered a place of origin of the ancestors of the Malays.
WORD FROM Binanga KANVAR
According to Muhammad Zain said Prof.Sutan Minangkabau derived from Binanga Kanvar. Binanga Kanvar means the Kampar River estuary. According to the Kampar River Estuary is the beginning of the kingdom of Minangkabau.
Another opinion that was attuned to the Prof.Sutan Mohammed Zain is a statement by a Chinese national named Kua Chan Yu. This statement in a note he wrote in his journey.
In the note he explained that when he once came to Kampar estuary in the 13th century. He explained that in Kampar estuary that he found a most crowded commercial airports in the central island of Sumatra. These notes are reminiscent of a similar record of its predecessor, I-Tsing, a few centuries earlier.
WORD FROM MINA KAMBWA
While doing research for the deepening of the material in some books, I (Yulfian Azrial, 2011) view that the word Minangkabau also be derived from the Sanskrit term, which is said Mina Kambwa. Mina Kabwa means the country or countries Dragon Pillar Sky Pillar is comprised of a row of Volcano.
In terms of etymology, the word mina in Sanskrit language means Dragon. In ancient Hindu stories, the term Mina or Naga is often portrayed as a symbol of the cluster of volcanoes located in Bukit Barisan mountains today. While Kambwa or Skambwa means pillar or some sort of pedestal sky. So Mina Kambwa meaning sky pole or a pillar consisting of a cluster of volcanoes.
Mina Kambwa term is often called the mandala-Hindu mandala. In the Hindu mandala mandala-like in the Shri Yantra and the Kalachakra Mandala, a row of Mount Merapi in the cluster of mountains mountain chain is often referred to as Mount Meru or Mount of the Holy heaven. The biggest and highest mountain called Mount Mahameru often symbolized by the great pyramid. The mountain is believed by most experts is Mount Krakatoa erupted in the year 11,600 BC.
At that time the volcano erupted with a blast supervuklanis her, which makes the mountain collapsed like a leaky balloon. High mountain peaks which originally was submerged beneath the sea, turn into a giant caldera. Smoke and dust covered almost the entire sky even the world. The thing that makes the experts Geological and Nuclear Physicists argue that this is what causes the end of the Ice Age Pleistosen.16
Before the eruption of Mount Krakatoa in the region illustrated that there are peaks of world civilization that later spread to parts of the world lain.17 To commemorate this civilization in the land of their ancestors, then its spread has been found in various places many symbols of the triangle. Symbolic representation of Mount Meru or Mount of the Holy heaven.
Even in a place built a duplicate of Mount Meru is commonly called a pyramid. For example as found in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, in Mayan, and Aztec tribes in the Americas. Even with putting the bodies in this building, as imagined by those putting the deceased in the belly of Mount Heaven.
