HISTORY
Medan started as a village called Kampung Medan (Medan Village). Because Kampung Medan sits on Tanah Deli (Land of Deli), Kampung Medan is also referred as Medan-Deli. The original location of Kampung Medan is an area where the Deli River meets the Babura River. Based on the diary of the Portuguese merchant in early 16th century, it stated that the name of Medan was actually derived from M

edina which is actually a holy city in the western of Saudi Arabia. However, other sources indicated that the name of Medan actually came from Indian Hindi language word "Maidan" meaning "ground" or "land"(like in Pragati Maidan in Delhi). One of the Karo-Indonesia dictionary written by Darwin Prinst SH published in 2002 wrote that Medan could also be defined as "recover" or "be better". The first inhabitants of Medan came from the Malay from the Malay Peninsular. It was not until the Sultan of Aceh, Sultan Iskandar Muda, sent his warlord, Gocah Pahlawan Laksamana Khoja Bintan, to be the Sultanate of Aceh's representative in Tanah Deli, that the Sultanate of Deli started to grow. This growth stimulated growth in both the population and culture of Medan. In the second year reign of Sultan Deli (between 1669–1698), there was a cavalry battle in Medan. Medan did not experience significant development until the 1860s, when the Dutch colonialists began clearing the land for to***co plantations. Medan quickly became a center of government and commercial activity, dominating development of Indonesia's western region. The Dutch governed Tanah Deli from 1658, after Sultan Ismail, ruler of the Kingdom of Siak Sri Indrapura, yielded some of his once-ruled land, Deli, Langkat, and Serdang. In 1915 Medan officially became the capital of North Sumatra Province, and officially a city in 1918. Currently much of Medans historic architecture from the colonial era is rapidly being demolished to make way for modern buildings (malls, garages.
