The origin of the name of Aceh is still debated. there are some lagenda about the name of aceh that I will tell.
since the first century BC aceh has become the trade route internasiaonal.pelabuhan aceh became a stopover place of the passers even exist between mareka which then settled mixing various tribe of the newcomer then make face aceh variously.
we are banngsa aceh believed to be included in the Malay clan ie'mante'lanun'sakai jakun'semang or orang laut'serta senui and various other tribes that originally landed in aceh.
all the tribes are closely related to bangsavphonesia and dravida in the river valley of indus and gangga in india.
Mante originally inhabited aceh great especially in gampong seumilleuk zahulu era called as gampong rumoh duablah, because there are only 12 houses dikampung it.
the location of the village is said above seulimuem between tangse and jantho.seumiluek means broad plains. these mante nations are the ones who continue to grow into the residents of lhee sagoe in ace aceh that then move and spread to some other place.
after 400 AD the people outside began to call the name aceh as hemp or ramni, while the Chinese call it Lan Li, Lanwu Li, and Nan poly. While the Malay call it the actual lambri according to the language of aceh is Lam Muri. after the arrival of the Portuguese tothe archipelago begins Aceh is called as Acehm, while Arabs call it asji.ad also stating the origin of the aceh's name from the old story that tells about the arrival of the Buddhist from China, when sailing in the sea aceh see the various lights above the SEAWARSEARS.mareka then berucapb "Acchera vaata bho" which means how wonderful it is from that word thenborn aceh word.tapih version in lagerda aceh people tell the origin of the name of aceh came from two daughter who was bathing in river.yang sister is pregnant. when they are busy engrossed in bathing suddenly there is raft of banana stalks drifting. they look on the raft there is moving motion of second daughter thatthen swiftly swam to take it both were surprised to find out that the object on the raft was a baby and his brother said to his sister, Dik, you're pregnant means you will get a child so give the baby to brother, well, tapih we take it home until it is known to people "replied his sister. They even started to go home to prepare everything to take care of the baby so as not to be suspected then the sibling prepare for madeng the preparation of pregnant women for 44 hari.setelah that he also took the baby from his homesee it to be wonder.maka asked who the child is "sister yes pregnant kok her sister who gave birth" adoe nyang mume a nyang ceh long time to be word aceh.
but there is another story again .. a lagenda tells that the zahulu era there is a king's son who was sailing suddenly shipwrecked ua shipwrecked on the beach resting on a tree which by the locals called the tree aceh.pohon that ditabalkan be the name of aceh.
Another lagenda tells that at one time a Hindu princess disappeared she ran away from her country but her abanh then found her in an area, she told the people of that area that it was "aji" meaning her sister meant that her lost sister had been rediscovered.
since then the princess in the adoption of a princess and the word "aji" in the name of the area then dikenallah the area as aceh area.
there is also a lagenda which refers to the origin of the name of aceh it is from the word Ka Ceh which means already born.ini started from the incident when the wife of the king who was pregnant when the empress had given birth to the resident said "Ka Ceh" ie already pregnant the word ka ceh then became aceh.
another version states that aceh comes from the character of aceh person itself. the character of aceh language is considered not to be broken. it is translated from the sequence of the word "a" which means no and "ceh" which means broken. so aceh means not broken.
last there is also said the name of Aceh is derived from the ethnic origin of the population who mixed with different ethnic.
the face of aceh people who resemble many nations made a benchmark. it is the aceh it stands for A from the Arabic word, C of the Chinese word, E means europe and H means hindia.
so the word sequence of the name of the nation is in the form of the word ACEH, because the people of Aceh are like Arabs, Chinese, Europeans, and Hindus.
Yet it is a mere coincidence associated with the existence of the people of that nation who existed and inhabited ACEH.
