The fictionalized chronicle Hikayat Raja Pasai is the earliest Malay chronicle describing the events of the second half of the XIII - mid-XIV centuries. It is devoted to the history of the North Sumatran principality of Pasei Samudra: its foundation, the adoption of Islam by its rulers, relations with neighboring states (Siam and Majapahit). Mythological motifs and legends are intertwined in the chronicle with historically reliable data. The book may be of interest not only to specialists, but also to everyone interested in the history and culture of the medieval East.
