Terengganu Inscription Stone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KlMuseumBatuBersurat.jpg Earth
Terengganu Inscription Stone is the oldest Malay artifact to be written in Jawi. It was discovered by accident in a village at Sungai Tersat, Kuala Berang in 1899 by an Arab trader, Sayid Husin bin Ghulam al-Bokhari, after a flash floor in Kuala Berang. Until the value of the Terengganu Inscription Stone was appreciated, it was used as a stone mat for entering the house. As a result, part of it chipped away. The Terengganu Inscription Stone is said to have been written in Arabic Malay on 22 February, 1303, making it the oldest Malay writing in Jawi in existence.
The Terengganu State Government has been lobbying for the Terengganu Inscription Stone to be returned to the state. It was eventually returned in 1991, and is now on display at the Terengganu State Museum.
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
