Sanskrit inscriptions in the Malay world
A good number of Sanskrit inscriptions have been found in Malaysia and Indonesia. "Early inscriptions written in Indian languages and scripts abound in Southeast Asia. () The fact that southern Indian languages didn't travel eastwards along with the script further suggests that the main carriers of ideas from the southeast coast of India to the east - and the main users in Southeast Asia of religious texts written in Sanskrit and Pali - were Southeast Asians themselves. The spread of these north Indian sacred languages thus provides no specific evidence for any movements of South Asian individuals or groups to Southeast Asia.〔Jan Wisseman Christie, "The Medieval Tamil-language Inscriptions in Southeast Asia and China", ''Journal of Southeast Asian Studies'', Vol. 29, No. 02, September 1998, pp 239-268〕
==Ligor Inscription==
An inscription was found on the Malaccan peninsula, at Nakhon Si Thammarat in southern Thailand. It has been dubbed the "Ligor inscription", "Ligor" being the name given by Europeans to the region in the 16th and 17th centuries. It is written in Sanskrit〔Niranjan Prasad Chakravarti and Bijan Raj Chatterjee, ''An Outline of Indo-Javanese History'', Calcutta: Greater India Society, 1926〕 and bears the date of 775 AD.〔O. W. Wolters, “Tambralinga”, in Classical civilisations of South East Asia: an anthology of articles published in the Bulletin of SOAS (Vladimir Braginsky ed.), RoutledgeCurzon, 2002, 0-7007-1410-3, p. 588〕 One side of the inscription refers to the Illustrious Great Monarch (śrīmahārāja) belonging to the ‘Lord of the Mountain’ dynasty (śailendravaṁśa), which is also mentioned in four Sanskrit inscriptions from Central Java; the other side refers to the founding of several Buddhist sanctuaries by a king of Sriwijaya.〔Pierre-Yves Manguin, “Srivijaya, An Introduction”, Nalanda-Sriwijaya Centre, Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, 2009〕 Sriwijaya is the name of a kingdom whose centre was located in the modern city of Palembang in South Sumatra province, Indonesia. The Ligor inscription is testimony to an expansion of Sriwijaya power to the peninsula.〔Leonard Y. Andaya, ''Leaves of the same tree: trade and ethnicity in the Straits of Melaka'', University of Hawaii Press, 2008, p. 149〕
