The Khmer Empire and the Malay Peninsula
THE KHMER EMPIRE AND THE MALAY PENINSULA LAWRENCE PALMER BRIGGS* Washington, D. C. THE FUNAN PERIOD, CA. 150- CA. 550 A. The peninsula before the conquests by Funan. The first known con tact of the Khmer Empire or any of its antecedents with what is now called the Malay Peninsula1 occurred when Fan Shih-man of Funan conquered a considerable portion of that peninsula early in the third century; although it is believed, from the terms in which the account of his voyage are ex pressed, that Hun-t'ien, or Hun-shen (Kaundinya), who conquered the native queen, Liu-yeh (Willow Leaf), and founded the kingdom of Funan about the middle of the first century, came from an Indian settlement on the eastern side of that peninsula.2 The earliest known inhabitants of the peninsula were pigmy negritos, represented today by the Semangs of the forests of the northern part of the bulb forming the southern part of the peninsula, and a Veddoid people, called Proto-Australoid by some anthropologists, of whom the Sakai of the central part of the southern bulb are representative.3 A people speaking a pre-Mon-Khmer Austro-Asiatic language seem to have occupied the mainland adjacent to the peninsula and, probably under pressure from the Mon-Khmers, flooded the peninsula, imposing their language on the Sakai.4 The Mons occupied the Tenasserim region but apparently never extended to the Isthmus of Kra.5 • Mr. Briggs is a specialist on the lndochinese Peninsula, especially Cambodia. He has published numerous articles in the Quarterly, Journal of the American Oriental Society, T'oung pao, and other scholarly journals. -
The Kingdom of Jaffna - Propaganda? Or History?
The Kingdom of Jaffna - Propaganda? Or History? The history of Sri Lanka during the period of about three and a half centuries between the abandonment of Polonnaruva and the Portuguese conquest of the maritime provinces comprising chiefly the territories incorporated within the kingdoms of Kotte and }affna presents features which are in many ways different from those of the preceding periods. Although this period of the island's history has suffered relatively by neglect and has been represented as one of decline generally by historians influenced by Classical romanticist thinking it has a greater relevance for the understanding of the institutions and problems of modern and even contemporary Sri Lankan history. In his' critical review' of the The Kingdom of lafIna, Gunasinghe in effect accuses the author of having written it, like earlier Tamil scholars, with sectarian and propagandist motives, his aim being the proving of an extensive Tamil or South Indian influence on the history of the island from early times. In other words, his charge is that the author has sought to present an Indo-centric or rather Dravido-centric view of the history of Sri Lanka. "The underlying theme of this book... is basically the propagandist idea of proving a predominantly Dravidian influence on the North and East of the Island from early times." " The propagandist theme of this book." " ••• an obsessive desire to prove an extensive Dravidian influence in the Island from early times." ,•.• , a desire to show an exaggerated picture of the expansion of South Indian and Tamil influence in Sri Lanka from early times."

The Genesis of the Muslim Community in • Ceylon (Sri Lanka): a Historical Summary
THE GENESIS OF THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY IN • CEYLON (SRI LANKA): A HISTORICAL SUMMARY AMBER ALI Research on the historical ongms of the Ceylon Muslim com munity is yet an unchartered field in the overall history of the island. Ramanathan's "The Ethnology of the Moors of Ceylon,"1 I. L. M. Abdul Azeez's criticism on Ramanathan's thesis,2 Siddi Lebbe's wrih ings on the subject in his Muslim Necan3 and Cassim's llankaic CO:.. nako.J' Carittiram,4 based almost entirely on Siddi Lebbe's works, are all, considering the context and spirit in which they were written (as shown below), open to the charge of historical bias and partisan ship. Van Sanden's Sonahars is a comprehensive but an uncritical presentation of all hearsay evidence and is overtly apologetic of the British colonial rule over the Muslims. Goonewardena's "Some Notes On The History of the Muslims In Ceylon Before the British Occupa tion"6 and de Silva's "Portuguese Policy Towards Muslims"7 are the only scholarly works available on the period before 1800, but they too have their shortcomings. The former, as the title itself suggests, is only a peripheral treatment limited by the author's inaccessibility to Arabic, Portuguese and Tamil sources; while the latter, constrained by the scope of the article, does not throw any light on the origins of the community. Besides these, several articles have appeared from time to time authored by a variety of writers ranging from Muslim activists to University lecturers. The only common feature in all these articles is that they try to trace the historical origins of the Ceylon Muslims as far back as possible and thereby they forget to 1 P. -

Review Articles
REVIEW ARTICLES BACKGROUND TO THE SRI VIJAYA STORY-PART IV, Senarat Paranavitana, Ceylon and Malaysia, (Lake House, 1966), and other sources of interlinear writing (see list in section 21) 16. VIJAYABAHU I, PARAKRAMABAHU I AND NISSAMKAMALLA This part, in fifty pages, deals with the history of Ceylon from the Accession of Vijayabahu the Great in 1073 to the coming of the Portuguese in 1505, a period of over four centuries. Nobody can accuse me of not bringing down the cost of 1i ving. But the aim is not to tell the history of Ceylon as such, but to give that history within the pattern of a history of Sri Vijaya. The story is based on the accepted sources with the addition of two Ceylonese inscriptions recently published; while Parana vitana's sources of interlinear writing will only be used sparingly as connecting links in the overall story. The two 'new inscriptions' are the Panusvasnuvara Pillar Inscription of the 9th century where the topo nym Yavaju-Kalingubimhi appears; and the Madirigiri Slab Inscription of the 11th century with the name Samara Vijayottunga. These inscriptions comprise two of four irrefutable pieces of evidence, three of which have already been mentioned in the third part of this paper, while the fourth will be submitted in Section 17 below. With all this new evidence. the story of this four hundred years' period produced by historians of Sri Lanka must be looked at again from an entirely new angle. Irrespective of whether the Kalinga in the story was in Orissa India, as the Simhalese historians have thought, or it was in Southeast Asia, as the evidence now shows, it seems curious that these historians have never asked themselves the reasons why the Kalinga princes who became kings of Ceylon, such as Nissamkamalla and Magba, ever inva ded the island in the first place. -

Over the past four years of my graduate studies in the University of California Riverside, Guruji has made me truly realize that nothing is impossible with yogic power, something that I thought I understood and I took for granted. Words cannot express the unconditional love, the emotional support, and the spiritual guidance extended to me by Guruji while I have been away from home and family, studying in California. I am truly indebted, Thank you “Dato’ Seri Guruji and Datin Sri G.” I would like to sincerely thank my Chair, Priya Srinivasan, for helping me to identify the direction of my research when I was initially overwhelmed with so many thoughts, for giving me the confidence to pursue the topic of my interest, and for pushing me to think through different research possibilities. I owe her special thanks for molding me into a better scholar and for influencing the way I approach dance scholarship now. -

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 a ABSTRACT This study attempts to trace and examine the economic conditions of Ceylon during the period c. A.D. 1070 to 1344. The geographical area of the new capitals that were chosen by the Sinhalese kings after the abandonment of Polonnaruwa as the seat of authority resulted in some changes in the economic pattern and organization of the Sinhalese kingdom* By examining the nature of such changes where relevant, the author has primarily attempted to delineate the main features of economic organization of the Polonnaruwa period and the immediately following period which saw the gradual decline of the Rajarata.reservoir system. The introductory chapter outlines the political history of the period and examines the social framework of the Sinhalese.
