History Of The Jampang Surade (Sukabumiupdate Image)

YOGYAKARTA - Not only Banten Sundanese land which is known to be dangerous because of sacredness, witchcraft, and also my opinion, it turns out that Sukabumi is also yes. This time we will discuss the history of the legendary Jampang Surade in Sukabumi.

The areas of Jampang and Surade are well-known places for their sacredness in Sukabumi there. Many people believe that Jampang is the place for magic people in Sukabumi.

Since the Dutch colonial era, the Jampang area has indeed been known to be one of the heroes as well as a place for extension workers or witchcraft. People in this area have an interest in kanuragan science so that many of the Jampang people have knowledge of sacredness.

Not only that, there is one figure who is a Betawi silat hero who is known to be powerful and brave called Sang Jampang.

Many people think that Si Jampang is a real character from Betawi, while he is actually a descendant of Sundanese from Jampang, Sukabumi.

His father came from Banten, while the mother came from the Jampang area as written on the official website of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government that Si Jampang was said to be a silat warrior who was born in a village called Jampang, Sukabumi, West Java.

Until now, the area is still believed to be one of the strongest black magic centers in the Land of Sundanese. Many of the supernatural experts admit that the Jampang people are very great and not a few of them have studied to make Jampang the goal of learning sacred science.

After getting to know Jampang as a place for magic people, at this time we know some of the elders in Pajampangan a little.

Often legends tell about historical figures who really exist, but because they develop verbally, they are exaggerated as a form of love for the character.

No exception with the legend of the 5 Embah (eyang or elder) which is said to be the karun (adult) of the Jampang people.

Uniquely, the 5 Embahs or karuhun referred to are related to a figure named Adipati Jagabaya, a leader in Galuh Imbanagara Regency who was in power around 1731-1751 AD.

Alkali, Raden Jagabaya was under pressure between the feud between the Dutch colonial government and the Mataram Sultanate. In order to seek safety, Jagabaya and her children fled to the Jampang Kulon area, Surade and its surroundings. The story is written in an ancient book entitled Hidung which was translated by Sukabumi historian Anies Djatusinda.

Uniquely, the Jagabaya tree reportedly reached the Prophet SAW through the Sultan Fatah route (Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa) up to Maulana Muhammad (Sultan Banten) to Maulana Yusuf to Maulana Hasanuddin and his conclusions were Syarif Hidayatullah (Sunan Gunung Jati). From Sunan Gunung Jati it was his lineage to Fatimah Az-Zahra and then the Prophet Muhammad SAW. (wallahualam)

Then, who are the 5 Embahs known as Jampang people and their surroundings?

I. Gold Embah

The gold embah is a native of the Ciamis Galuh generation named Raden Mas Surawijangga who was later discovered by the Jampang people and its surroundings under the name "Emas Embah". The gold embah is the son of Adipati Jagabaya, popularly known as Dalem Sawidak. The gold embah was appointed as Wedana in Panjalu Imbanagara.

II. Karangbolong Embah

The second male brother was named Raden Mas Martanagara. He lives in Karadenan village (currently named Cibitung). After he died, he was buried in Karangbolong (Jati protected forest / leuweung, Jati cover). That's why he was known by the name Embah Karangbolong.

III. Cigangsa Embah

The third is Embah Cigangsa alias Grandmother Santri Dalem. His real name is Raden Surianatamanggal and he is the younger brother of Embah Emas. In his escape with his older brother, Raden Suriantamanggal chose to stay in Cigangsa (Surade) until the end of his life.

IV. Bungsu Embah

The fourth brother of the Golden Embah who also fled to the land of Jampang and its surroundings was named Raden Bratadikusumah alias Embah Bungsu. Even though he was the youngest brother, he was known to have high religious knowledge and therefore was highly respected by his brother, Embah Emas and Embah Cigangsa.

V. Embah Beureum

Embah Beureum does not have a bond of brotherhood with the four previous embahs. However, the story is closely related. Brojonoto, who came from Banyumas, Central Java, was a troop leader who was ordered by the Company (Netherlands) to pursue the Golden Embah and his younger siblings. In the pursuit, Brojonoto held a duel with Embah Karangbolong and lost to life.
