Champadesa/Champa Nagara (चंपानगर)

(1st century CE – 1832)


The extent of Champa kingdom

The people of Champa are descendants of Malayo-Polynesian settlers who appear to have reached the Southeast Asian mainland from Borneo about the time of the Sa Huynh culture in the 1st and 2nd centuries B.C. The Champa kingdom that covered the present day southern Vietnam was part of the Malay civilization as reflected by the Malay characteristics in the culture of Cham people, notably in their language, literature and beliefs.


Cham language is a member of the Malayo-Polynesian branch of the Austronesian family and closely related to Achehnese and Malay language. From 15th century, the Malay language achieved a great influence throughout the Malay world including Champa, to the extent that the king of Cambodia also used Malay language as a diplomatic language with foreign powers like Portuguese and Dutch. According to a Dutch record, in 1680 the king of Champa, Po Saut sent a diplomatic letter in Malay language to Dutch East Indies Company (VOC) in Batavia. In the letter, he even referred to himself as “Paduka Seri Sultan”, a typical Malay royal title.


There are similarities between Cham decorative ornaments and those of the Malays, similarities in the way they dress, the types of attire and decorations such as the kelarai, songket and tengkolok. The headgear worn by Champa dignitaries in the 12th century was said to be very much like the Malay’s tengkolok. The various hairstyles sported by Malay women were very similar to Cham women during their heydays, notably the sanggul lintang, sanggul ekor kera, sanggul dua, and sanggul siput rendah.


Modern day Cham people


Champa was also said to have close historical relations with Malay people of Kelantan and many name of places, attire and decorations in Kelantan were adopted from Champa language. One type of kite-flying, a popular pastime in Kelantan, was named Wau Lenggang Kembayat (“Kembayat” is the Champa name mentioned in Syair Siti Zubaidah). The Kelantanese Malays also have what they call sutera chepa, tenun chepa, and keris chepa, which “chepa” is the corrupted version of “champa” in Kelantanese dialect. Malay titles like Nik and Wan used by many people in Patani, Kelantan and Terengganu were said to have originated from Champa and are still being used by certain royal families of Champa in Indo-China.


The Malay annals (Sejarah Melayu) mentioned Champa in several of its episodes related to some important events during the golden age of the Melaka Sultanate. According to the stories in the Annals, the relationship between Champa and Melaka began when a Champa prince, Shah Indera Berma, visited Melaka with his consort. They were welcomed by Sultan Mansur Shah who asked them to embrace Islam. The prince was then appointed a minister in the sultan’s court. In 1594, the Cham Lord, Po At even sent forces to assist the Johor Sultanate's (the successor of Melaka Sultanate) attack on Portuguese-occupied Melaka city.


Hikayat Hang Tuah tells a story about a kingdom, Inderapura (in Champa), which was constantly attacked by the people of Đi Vit until it fell in 1000 A.D. The Syair Siti Zubaidah Perang Cina also tells an almost similar story, but refer to Champa as the kingdom of Kambayat Negara. Another Malay manuscript, the Hikayat Raja Muda, mentions a kingdom called Cempaka Sari which was attacked and conquered.



Champa ruins

The Champa kingdom is reported to have left behind 206 inscriptions carved on stone, copper plates and other writing surfaces, 98 of which were in the Cham language, 43 in Sanskrit, 29 in both of these languages and 36 illegible. It also left behind a rich historical heritage, including artistically designed and architecturally marvellous temples of rich historical value which give credit to Malay culture and civilization.

According to Cham legend, Lady Po Nagar, or Leiou Ye, was the founder of the Cham nation. She was born into a farming family in the Dai An Mountains of the Khanh Hoa Province. With the help of the spirits, she sailed to China hidden on a piece of sandalwood. There, she married a royal heir and bore two children. After many years, she returned to her home and established a Cham nation there.


According to Chinese records, the kingdom of Champa was officially formed in the early 192 A.D. by King Sri Mara or Khu Lien, during the breakup of the Han dynasty of China. Gradually it came under Indian cultural influence, evolving into a decentralized country composed of four small states, named after regions of India, Amaravati (Quang Nam), Vijaya (Binh Dinh), Kauthara (Nha Trang), and Panduranga (Phan Rang). The four principalities had a powerful fleet that was used for commerce and for piracy. Within the four principalities there were two main clans: the "Dua" and the "Cau." The Dua lived in Amaravati and Vijaya while the Cau lived in Kauthara and Panduranga. The two clans differed in their customs and habits and conflicting interests led to many clashes and even war. But they usually managed to settle disagreements through intermarriage. The Cham people were finally united under the rule of King Bhadravarman around 400AD.

In retaliation for Cham raids on their coast, the Chinese invaded Champa in 446, bringing the region under their suzerainty once again. However, under a new dynasty in the 6th century, Champa threw off its allegiance to China and entered into an era of great independent prosperity and artistic achievements. From the 7th to the 10th century A.D., the Cham controlled the trade in spices and silk between China, India, the Malay islands, and the Abbassid caliphate. They supplemented their income from the trade routes not only by exporting ivory and aloe, but also by engaging in piracy and raiding.

In the late 8th century the Chams were distracted by attacks from Java, but in the 9th century they renewed their pressure on the Chinese provinces to the north and the growing Khmer Empire to the west. Under Indravarman II, who established the Indrapura dynasty in 875, the capital of the country was moved to the northern province of Amaravati, near present Hue, and elaborate palaces and temples were constructed. Champa reached its peak in civilization under the rule of this dynasty.

Factors contributing to the decline of Champa over the next several centuries include its enviable position along the trade routes, its relatively small population base, and its frequently antagonistic relations with its closest neighbours: the Đi Vit to the north and the Khmer to the west.

In the 10th century, the Vietnamese kingdom of Đi Vit, based in Hanoi, began to exert pressure on Champa, forcing it to relinquish Amaravati in 1000 and Vijaya in 1069. Harivarman IV, who founded the ninth Cham dynasty in 1074, was able to stave off further Viet and Cambodian attacks, but in 1145 the Khmers, under the aggressive leadership of Suryavarman II, invaded and conquered Champa. Two years later a new Cham king, Jaya Harivarman I, arose and threw off Khmer rule, and his successor sacked the Cambodian capital at Angkor in 1177. Between 1190 and 1220 the Chams again came under Cambodian suzerainty, and later in the 13th century they were attacked by the Tran kings of Viet, as well as by the Mongols in 1284.

This bas relief at the late 12th century Angkorian temple called the Bayon depicts Cham mariners in action against the Khmer.

By the late 15th century, incessant wars of aggression and defence had for all practical purposes wiped out the Champa kingdom; one by one their provinces were annexed. In 1471, in a reaction to a Cham raid against Hóa Châu, King Lê Thánh Tông of Đi Vit invaded Champa and sacked its capital, Vijaya. This was the final defeat of Champa, which then became separated principalities ruled by several Cham lords, and paying tributes to the Vietnamese kings. This defeat also caused the first major Cham emigration, particularly to Cambodia and Melaka.

In 1697, the southern principality of Panduranga became a vassal of the Vietnamese emperor. In 1700s, a Champa Muslim Lord, Pô Chien gathered his people and migrated south to Cambodia while those along the coastline migrated to the nearest Malay Peninsular state of Terengganu and Kelantan. Finally in 1832, the Vietnamese emperor Minh Mang annexed the remaining Cham territories.

Modern day Champa people make up a sizable minority in Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and Malaysia. Malaysian constitution recognises the Champa rights to Malaysian citizenship and their Bumiputera status.
