Lubuk Layang inscription, also known as Kubu Sutan inscription, is an inscription found in 1970 in Kubu Sutan, Lubuk Layang, Rao Selatan district, Pasaman Regency, of West Sumatra, Indonesia.[1][2]
The inscription is carved into a sloping sandstone, partially submerged in the ground.[3] It is 85 cm tall on the non-submerged side, and 43 cm on the immersed side, with 42 cm wide and 18 cm thick.[3] The writing is on both front and back sides,[1][4] the front contains 9 lines and the back contains 7 or 8 lines,[4] and written in a mixed language of Old Malay and Old Javanese.[2] Much of the writing is difficult to read because it is already worn out.[3] The inscription is not dated, but paleographically it is viewed to be from the reign of King Adityawarman (14th century CE).[2]
The content of this inscription mentions a vice king/crown prince (Sanskrit: yuwaraja) named Bijayendrawarman, who made a temple (stupa) in a place called Parwatapuri.[2] This suggests the possibility of a government system similar to that of Majapahit at that time, in which younger children of a king were sent to the borders to become local rulers.[2]
