In 2004 Leyten published in the JMP: Gold coins of Samudra-Pasai and Acheh: Their origin, name and weight in a historical context, with a list with the names of 20 rulers of Samudra-Pasai and their genealogy, based on their (undated) coins. In 2008 Claude Guillot & Ludvik Kalus published: Les monuments funéraires et l’histoire du Sultanat de Pasai à Sumatra (Funeral monuments and the history of the Sultanate of Pasai in Sumatra), with a list of 32 names of “Souverains”, based on the fact that the title ‘sultan’ was on their gravestone. However, not all these ‘souverains’ or sultans were actually rulers. Both coins and epitaphs are trustworthy historical documents. The combination of the data from both publications and information from other sources makes it possible to draw up an updated genealogy of the rulers of Samudra-Pasai and use it to date the coins.
