The Kerajaan Jambu Lipo or Kingdom of Jambu Lipo is located in the district of Lubuk Tarok, Sijunjung district, West Sumatra now. According to Tambo Minangkabau, the name Jambu Lipo came from the result of an agreement between Rajo Tigo Selo in Pagaruyung which should not forget each other, with the origin of the word "jan bu lupo" which means "don't forget mother".[1][2]

History

The Jambu Lipo Kingdom is a branch of the Pagaruyung Kingdom. According to Tambo, this kingdom was founded in the early 10th century by the pious congregation of the Islamic syiar caliph from Pasai with its first king with the title Dungku Dangka. The government structure of the Jambu Lipo kingdom is the same as the Pagaruyung kingdom used by Rajo Tigo Selo. At first the center of government of the Jambu Lipo kingdom was in Bukit Jambu Lipo. During the reign of the 4th king, Buayo Kumbang, together with other dignitaries, held negotiations against the White Memories conflict which was agreed to move the center of government to Nagari Lubuk Tarok. Jambulipo Kingdom was originally centered on the top of the Jambulipo hill, about 3 km from the Lubuk Tarok highway. The first king to hold the reins of government was Dungku Dangka, and then the Jambulipo kingdom was ruled by 14 kings. The last king was Firman with the title of the 14th Bagindo Tan Ameh. The existence of the Jambulipo kingdom at the top of Jambulipo Hill only lasted until the reign of the 4th king, namely Rajo Alam who had the title Bagindo Tan Ameh. After carrying out regional developments to various regions, such as Nagari Paulasan, Taratak Baru, Sinyamu, and so on, the Jambulipo kingdom accepted peace talks from Sutan Nan Paik's side at Koto Peak. The negotiations then continued to create a nagari which is now known as Nagari Lubuk Tarok. Since the establishment of Nagari Lubuk Tarok, the Kingdom of Jambulipo is no longer at the top of the Jambulipo hill, but is then centered in the Gadang Bawah Pawuah House or known as Kelambu Suto. The structure of government in the Jambulipo kingdom is still well-preserved as before with the top leadership of Rajo Tigo Selo, namely: Rajo Alam with the title Bagindo Tan Ameh, Rajo Ibadat with the title Bagindo Maharajo Indo, Rajo Adat with the title Bagindo Tan Putih. Besides Rajo Nan Tigo Selo, there are several core royal officials consisting of Royal Sandi, Amanah Sandi, and Padek Sandi as well as several commanders called Ampang Limo Rajo. The above officials also have their respective subordinates, both at the central and regional levels.[3]

Based on collective memory and traditions that are still sustainable in the Kanagarian community, Lubuk Tarok Dra. Zusneli Zubir, M. Hum., Head of the Research Team and its members: Efrianto, SS., and Rismadona, S.Sos. reported the results of their study of the existence of the Jambu Lipo Kingdom at the Seminar on the Results of the Study of Cultural Values, held by the Center for the Preservation of Cultural Values of the Province of West Sumatra (BPNB West Sumatra) on Monday 16–17 November 2020 at the Kyriad Bumiminang Hotel, Jalan Bundo Kanduang No. 20 - 28, Padang. BPNB West Sumatra under the auspices of the Directorate General of Culture of the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia dissected 10 research reports at the seminar. Zusneli Zubir and the team reported the results of a study entitled 'The Existence of the Royal Tradition of Jambu Lipo in Community Development in Sijunjung Regency (1980 – 2000)', they made their first appearance on the first day of the seminar from 9.10 - 10.40 WIB. Their study was dissected by Dr. Nopriyasman, M. Hum., Chair of the Postgraduate History of Andalas University in front of 30 seminar participants who enthusiastically responded to the research. Zusneli Zubir said, "The existence of the Jambu Lipo Kingdom to this day is still visible in the level of ceremonies, the beauty and majesty of the cultural relics, the arts that are performed, as well as the natural environment of the royal area. related to the existence of the Jambu Lipo Kingdom, among others, are events: mangroves (a thanksgiving ceremony), pilgrimage to Rajo's grave, and wandering overseas.” Currently, there has been a fusion between modernity and traditionality, which is in line with the local government's efforts to make cultural historical heritage one of the valuable assets to support tourism in the region. In this context, the cultural heritage of the Jambu Lipo Kingdom appears as a mainstay for the prosperity of the country. Zusneli Zubir also said that the emergence of the royal world as one of the Minangkabau identities was related to Harun Al Rasyid Zein's (Governor of West Sumatra) pride strategy in bringing back Minangkabau culture which was symbolized through the construction of the Basa Palace. Palaces and all forms of royal heritage will eventually become a symbol par excellence of regional identity in Indonesia in the era of autonomy.[4]
