  • Lobu Tua Inscription, also called Barus Inscription, is an inscription written in Tamil language which was discovered in 1873 in the village of Lobu Tua, Andam Dewi district of Central Tapanuli Regency, in North Sumatra Province, Indonesia. This inscription is dated 1010 Saka, or 1088 AD. This inscription was reported in the Madras Epigraphy Report of 1891-1892 by E. Hultzsch, an English epigraphist in India. The inscription mentions the existence of a Tamil trade union in the Barus region. The trade union was named "The Five Hundreds of a Thousand Directions" (Disai-Ayirattu-Ainnurruvar). According to Prof. Y. Subbarayalu from Tamil University, Thanjavur, this trade union's other name was Ayyavole, which also left a Tamil-language inscription in Aceh. In Barus, they bought various commodities from the local population, and the members were collected excise in the form of gold, which was based on the price of the kasturi. The objects of the excise were the ship, the captain, and kevi. According to reports, in the 1900s a Buddha statue in the form of a torso made of red granite was also found in the site, which is now gone. The existence of the statue in Barus raises the suspicion that the Tamil community there was permanent or semi-permanent, therefore it has its own place of worship. Currently 7/8 parts of the inscription are stored in the National Museum of Indonesia and another one eight part is still in Lobu Tua. Beside inscriptions, in Lobu Tua some dry old cylindrical wells were found as well. (en)
  • Prasasti Lobu Tua, atau Prasasti Barus, adalah sebuah prasasti dalam bahasa Tamil, yang ditemukan pada tahun 1873 di Desa Lobu Tua, Kecamatan Andam Dewi, Kabupaten Tapanuli Tengah, Sumatra Utara. Prasasti ini berangka tahun Saka 1010 atau 1088 Masehi. Prasasti ini dilaporkan dalam Madras Epigraphy Report tahun 1891-1892 oleh E. Hultzsch, ahli epigrafi Inggris di India. Prasasti ini menyebutkan tentang adanya suatu serikat dagang bangsa Tamil di daerah Barus. Serikat dagang tersebut disebutkan bernama "Yang Ke Lima Ratus dari Seribu Arah" (Disai-Ayirattu- Ainnurruvar). Menurut Prof. Y. Subbarayalu dari Universitas Thanjavur, serikat dagang ini yang bernama lain Ayyavole, juga meninggalkan prasasti berbahasa Tamil pula di Aceh. Di Barus, mereka membeli berbagai komoditas dari penduduk setempat, dan kepada para anggotanya menarik cukai berupa emas yang didasarkan pada harga kasturi, dengan objek cukainya adalah kapal, nakhoda, dan kevi. Menurut laporan, pada tahun 1900-an juga pernah ditemukan arca Buddha dalam bentuk torso yang terbuat dari batu granit merah, yang saat ini sudah hilang. Adanya arca tersebut di Barus menimbulkan dugaan bahwa komunitas Tamil di sana sudah bersifat permanen atau semi permanen, sehingga memiliki tempat peribadatannya sendiri. Saat ini, 7/8 bagian prasasti tersimpan di Museum Nasional Indonesia dan 1/8 bagian lainnya masih berada di Lobu Tua. Selain prasasti, di Lobu Tua juga ditemukan beberapa sumur tua berbentuk silinder yang sudah kering. (in)
