Silat.

Martial tradition passed down orally and spread by word of mouth, taught from teacher to pupil. Because of that a written record of the origin of martial arts is hard to find. In Minangkabau, parried or Silek created by Datuk Suri Kings of Pariangan, Tanah Datar, at the foot of Mount Merapi in the XI century. Silek then taken and developed by the Minang people throughout Southeast Asia. Most martial arts history told through legends that vary from one region to another. Such as the origin of martial arts Cimande flow that tells the story of a woman who witnessed a fight between a tiger and a monkey and he modeled the movement of the animal fighting. The origin of martial arts in Indonesia may have evolved from the skills of indigenous tribes Indonesia in the hunt and fight using machetes, shields, and spears.

As it is now found in the tradition of Nias tribe, which until the 20th century relatively untouched by outside influences. Silat is expected to spread in the archipelago since the 7th century BC, but their origin could not be ascertained. Nonetheless, silat is now recognized as a culture of the Malays in the broad sense, ie the inhabitants of the coastal areas of the island of Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula, as well as a variety of other ethnic groups who use the lingua franca of the Malay language in the various regions in the islands of Java, Bali, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and others are also developing their own form of traditional martial arts. In Minangkabau language, it is equal to Silek parried. Sheikh Shamsuddin (2005) argues that there are significant martial arts of China and India in the martial arts. Even actually does just that. This is understandable because the Malay culture (including Pencak Silat) is an open culture in which since the beginning of the Malay culture has adapted to the various cultures brought by traders and immigrants from India, China, Arab, Turkish, and others. Cultures were then assimilate and adapt to the culture of the natives. Then presumably historical martial arts was born along with the emergence of Malay culture. Thus, each region generally has a proud martial character. For example, the Malay people, especially in the Malay Peninsula believes that Hang Tuah legend of the 14th century is the greatest martial arts warrior. Things like that also happened in Java, which boasts Gajah Mada.

The development and deployment of martial historically began to be recorded when the distribution is heavily influenced by the ulema, along with the spread of Islam in the 14th century in the archipelago. The historical record is considered authentic in the history of martial arts whose influence still can be seen today. At that time martial arts have taught together with religious lessons at the mosque-mosque. Silat then developed than just martial arts and folk dance, becomes part of the education of defending the country to face the invaders. Besides, it also martial arts become part of spiritual practice.
Silat grown in Indonesia and Malaysia (including Brunei and Singapore) and have the same historical roots as a means of resistance against foreign invaders. After days of independence, martial arts developed into formal martial arts. National martial arts organization established as Indonesian Pencak Silat Association (IPSI) in Indonesia, Persekutuan Silat Kebangsaan Malaysia (PESAKA) in Malaysia, Singapore Silat Guild (EXACTLY) in Singapore, and the Guild Silat Brunei Darussalam (PERSIB) in Brunei. Has grown also dozens of universities martial arts in the United States and Europe. Silat has now officially entered as a sport in international matches, particularly competed in the SEA Games.
