  • Siak and its Changing Strategies for Survival, c.1700–1870

    J Kathirithamby-Wells, J Kathirithamby–WellsCHAPTERLast Stand of Asian Autonomies1997

    At a time when commercial power based on extensive territorial claims was proving to be increasingly less viable as in the case of Aceh and Johor, Siak set out to establish its influence along the entire length of the east Sumatran coast from Tamiang in the north to Kateman to the south of Kuantan (see Map 9.1).

  • The Islamic City

    The concept of the city as religious centre, administrative capital and economic pivot for a society, state or kingdom, expressed in the Islamic concept ofmadina(Gibbs and Kramers 1961: 291; Lapidus 1969: 69) pre-dates Muslim influence in Southeast Asia. The physical as well as functional characteristics of the Southeast Asian city, deriving from its urban features, as distinct from its rural surroundings, were a culmination of gradual evolution …
