Pan Pan or Panpan was a small Hindu kingdom believed to have existed around the 3rd to 7th century CE. It is believed to have been located on the east coast of the Malay Peninsula, with opinion varying from somewhere in Kelantan or Terengganu, in modern-day Malaysia[1] to the vicinity of Phunphin district, Surat Thani province, in modern Thailand.[2]

According to the Chinese text Jiu Tang Shu, Pan Pan was bordered in the south with Langkasuka,[1]: 53  and in the north with Tun Sun near the Kra Isthmus.[3]: 259  Jacq-Hergoualc'h speculates that the border may have been south of Nakhon Si Thammarat, possibly near Songkhla.[1]: 53 

After the northern neighbor Tun Sun gained independence from Funan and became Lang-chia or Lang-ya-hsiu in the late 5th century CE, its southern part joined Pan Pan in the 6th century,[3]: 262–263  while the northern territory became Dvaravati.[3]: 268–269 

It is speculated to be related to the Patani Kingdom, which occupied the same area many centuries later, and has some differences in culture and language to other Malay regions nearby.

History

Little is known about this kingdom.

Pan Pan sent its first missions to the Chinese Liu Song dynasty between 424 CE nad 453[4]: 52  From here, Kaundinya II is said to have tried to re-introduce Hinduism to the Kingdom of Funan on the other side of the Gulf of Siam.[5]

Pan Pan sent tribute to the Liang dynasty and the Chen dynasty of China. in 529, 533, 534, 535 and 571[6] In 616 and 637, Pan Pan sent tribute to the Chinese Tang dynasty.[7]

The kingdom was later conquered by Srivijaya under the leadership of Dharmasetu before 775.[8]

Though rare, archeological discoveries show evidence of a lively economic flowering in the region through international maritime trade.[9]
