HISTORY

The process of the birth of the anniversary of Ciams Regency, began with the issuance of the Decree of the Regional House of Representatives of the Ciamis Regency on October 6, 1970 Number: 36/X/KPTS/DPRD/1970 AND NUMBER: 5/ll/KPTS/DPRD/1971, concerning the formation of the committee for the preparation of history of galuh, in which the committee was accompanied by a team of historians from Ikip Bandung, led by DRS. RD. H. Said Raksanegara. The formation of a committee for the preparation of the history of galuh is intended to explore and study the history of galuh as a whole, considering that there are several alternatives in determining the anniversary, whether to use it! Titimangsa Rahyangta in Medang Jati, namely the establishment of the Galuh Kingdom by Wretikkandayun on 23 March 612 AD or the Rakean Jamri era which was also called Raiyang Sanjaya before the Manarah came to power, or will take the date and year from the events, as follows: The name of Galuh Regency was changed to Ciamis Regency by the Regent, RD. Tumenggung Sastra Winata in 1916; Moving the center of government from Imbanagara to Cibatu (ciamis) by the Regent of RD. AA Wiradikusumah on January 15, 1815; Or the transfer of the center of Galuh Regency from garatengah which is located around cineam (tasikmalaya) to barunay (imbanagara) on June 12, 1642. The result of the hard work of the galuh history writing committee and the Bandung Ikip history expert team, finally concluded that the anniversary of Ciamis Regency fell on June 12, 1642, which was later confirmed by a decree of the Regional People's Representative Council of Ciamis Regency on 17 mel 1972 number: 22/v/ kpts/dprd/1972. With the decision of the DPRD, it is hoped that the puzzle about the anniversary of Ciamis Regency will not be contested anymore and it is also hoped that the whole community will know, so that they will be more enthusiastic about building this Galuh Tatar, in line with the fighting motto of the Ciamis Regency, namely: Gawe Rahavu use Heubeul Jaya Dinabuana to pursue / realize Mahayunan Ayuna Kadatuan. The word galuh comes from the Sanskrit language, which means gemstone, the kingdom of galuh means the kingdom of beautiful sparkling gems, fertile and prosperous gemah ripah loh jinawi, safe and peaceful kertaraharja. From history it is revealed that the founder of the Galuh kingdom was Wretikkandayun, he was the youngest son of Kandiawan who ruled the Kendan kingdom for 15 years (597 612) who later became a hermit in Layungwatang (brass area) and had the title Rajawesi Dewaraja or Sang Layungwatang. Wretikkandayun was based in Medangjati, but he founded a new government center and was named Galuh (which is located more or less in the present village of Karangkamulyan). he was crowned on the 14th suklapaksa month of caitra year 134 caka (approximately March 23, 612 AD). the date was chosen really according to tradition Tarumanagara, because it is not only done on a full day but also on that date the sun rises right at the eastern point. The aim of wretikkandayun to build a government center in the Karangkamulyan area (now) is to free itself from Tarumanagara, which has been a superpower for a long time. Therefore, in order to realize his obsession he had a good relationship with the Kalingga kingdom in Central Java, even his youngest son took an oil bath in an arranged marriage with Parwati, the eldest daughter of Maharanissima.
