Sejarah asal - usul kota Jakarta

 

Kota Jakarta

Sejarah Kota Jakarta bermula dari sebuah bandar kecil di muara Sungai Ciliwung sekitar 500 tahun silam. Selama berabad-abad kemudian kota bandar ini berkembang menjadi pusat perdagangan internasio-nal yang ramai.

Ulasan  Sejarah

Pengetahuan awal mengenai Jakarta terkumpul sedikit melalui berbagai prasasti yang ditemukan di kawasan bandar tersebut. Keterangan mengenai kota Jakarta sampai dengan awal kedatangan para penjelajah Eropa dapat dikatakan sangat sedikit.

Laporan para penulis Eropa abad ke-16 menyebutkan sebuah kota bernama Kalapa, yang tampaknya menjadi bandar utama bagi sebuah kerajaan Hindu bernama Sunda, beribukota Pajajaran, terletak sekitar 40 kilometer di pedalaman, dekat dengan kota Bogor sekarang. Bangsa Portugis merupakan rombongan besar orang-orang Eropa pertama yang datang ke bandar Kalapa. Kota ini kemudian diserang oleh seorang muda usia, bernama Fatahillah, dari sebuah kerajaan yang berdekatan dengan Kalapa.

Fatahillah mengubah nama Sunda Kalapa menjadi Jayakarta pada 22 Juni 1527. Tanggal inilah yang kini diperingati sebagai hari lahir kota Jakarta. Orang-orang Belanda datang pada akhir abad ke-16 dan kemudian menguasai Jayakarta.

Nama Jayakarta diganti menjadi Batavia. Keadaan alam Batavia yang berawa-rawa mirip dengan negeri Belanda, tanah air mereka. Mereka pun membangun kanal-kanal untuk melindungi Batavia dari ancaman banjir. Kegiatan pemerintahan kota dipusatkan di sekitar lapangan yang terletak sekitar 500 meter dari bandar.

Mereka membangun balai kota yang anggun, yang merupakan kedudukan pusat pemerintahan kota Batavia. Lama-kelamaan kota Batavia berkembang ke arah selatan. Pertumbuhan yang pesat mengakibatkan keadaan lilngkungan cepat rusak, sehingga memaksa penguasa Belanda memindahkan pusat kegiatan pemerintahan ke kawasan yang lebih tinggi letaknya. Wilayah ini dinamakan Weltevreden.

MENGAMATI kota Jakarta bagaikan membaca catatan panjang yang merekam berbagai kejadian masa lalu. Berbagai bangunan dan lingkungan di Jakarta menyimpan jejak-jejak perjalanan masyarakatnya, bagaimana mereka bersikap menghadapi tantangan zamannya, memenuhi kebutuhan hidupnya dan menyesuaikan diri dengan lingkungannya. Ia menyimpan suka-duka dan pahit-manisnya perkembangan, di mana kita dapat menyerap pelajaran yang berharga.

Jakarta, Ibukota Republik Indonesia, memiliki banyak rekaman sejarah. Antara lain dalam bentuk bangunan maupun lingkungan. Di dalamnya tercermin upaya masyarakat masa lalu dalam membangun kotanya yang tak luput dari berbagai masalah dari zaman ke zaman.

“Jika kita memandang kota Jakarta sekarang, mungkin sulit terbayang bahwa ribuan tahun yang lalu kawasan ini masih baru terbentuk dari endapan lumpur sungai-sungai yang mengalir ke Jakarta. Misalnya Kali Ciliwung, Kali Angke, Kali Marunda, Kali Cisadane, Kali Besar, Kali Bekasi dan Kali Citarum. Usia dataran Jakarta kini diperkirakan 500 tahun berdasarkan geomorfologi, ilmu lapisan tanah.

Endapan ini membentuk dataran dengan alur-alur sungai yang menyerupai kipas. Dataran ini setelah mantap lama kelamaan dihuni orang dan terbentuklah beberapa kelompok pemukiman, di mana salah satunya kemudian berkembang menjadi pelabuhan besar, " kata Muhammad Isa Ansyari SS, Sejarawan Terkemuka di Dinas Kebudayaan dan Permuseuman Pemda DKI Jakarta.

Ia menuturkan, kota Jakarta merupakan kota yang berkembang dengan cepat sejak mendapat peran sebagai Ibukota Rl. Perkembangan itu disebabkan oleh faktor-faktor sosial, ekonomi dan budaya yang saling menjalin satu sama lain.

Bermula dari sebuah lingkungan pemukiman kecil dengan kegiatan hidup terbatas, dan kemudian berkembang menjadi lingkungan pemukiman megapolitan dengan berbagai kegiatan yang amatkompleks. Dalam paparan sejarah pertumbuhannya, di mana pemerintah kotanya silih berganti dan kondisi masyarakatnya sangat majemuk, baik dari suku bangsa, ras dan agama berikut berbagai aspek kehidupannya, warga kotanya tetap membangun tempat bermukim dan berkehidupan mereka sesuai dengan kemampuan dana, daya dan teknologi yang mereka miliki.

Sejarah Kota Jakarta

Peta Batavia tahun 1897, Muhammad Isa Ansyari SS mengungkapkan sejarah kota Jakarta dimulai dengan terbentuknya sebuah pemukiman di muara Ciliwung. Menurut berita Kerajaan Portugal pada awal abad ke-15, pemukiman tersebut bernama "Kalapa" dan merupakan sebuah Bandar penting di bawah kekuasaan Kerajaan Pajajaran, yang pusatnya pada waktu itu berada di Kota Bogor.

"Di Kerajaan Pajajaran, Bogor, itu kini masih terdapat prasasti peninggalan abad ke-16. Nama prasasti itu "Sato Tulis", peninggalan Rahyang Niskala Watu Kencana, Namun oleh orang Eropa Bandar tersebut lebih dikenal dengan nama Sunda Kalapa, karena berada di bawah kekuasaan Sunda," kata Muhammad Isa Ansyari SS.

Dalam sejarah, ujar Sejarawan Terkemuka Dinas Kebudayaan dan Permuseuman Pemda OKI Jakarta itu, Bandar Malaka ditaklukkan Kerajaan Portugal pada 1511. Tujuan Portugal ketika itu adalah mencari jalur laut untuk mencapai kepulauan Maluku, sumber rempah-rempah. Maka pada 1522 mendaratlah kapal utusan dari Malaka di bawah pimpinan Francesco De Sa.

Menurut laporan Francesco De Sa terjadi perundingan dengan pemuka Bandar Kalapa yang berada di bawah kekuasaan Raja Sunda yang beragama Hindu.

Sementara itu di Jawa Tengan dengan surutnya Kerajaan Majapahit berkembanglah Kerajaan Islam di Demak. Kerajaan Islam itu kemudian menyerang Kerajaan Sunda di Jawa Barat meliputi Cirebon, Banten, Kalapa dan lain-lain. Mengingat kurangnya sumber-sumber asli Jawa Tengah tnengenai peristiwa itu, maka kita terpaksa berpaling kepada berita Kerajaan Portugal yang pada akhirnya tidak saja berlabuh di Maluku tetapi juga Kerajaan Portugal ini merapatdi Timor Timur, menyatakan bahwa pada 1526-1527 sebuah armada Portugal telah mengunjungi Sunda Kalapa untuk memenuni perfanjian tahun 1522.

"Ternyata mereka belum mengetahui bahwa telah terjadi perubahan kekuasaan dari Kerajaan Pajajaran ke Kerajaan Banten, yaltu orang-orang dari Jawa Tengah yang beragama Islam .Ivlenurut berita yang mereka dapat, nama Pangtima yang diberikan adalah Falatehan, sebutan mereka untuk nama Fatahillah," ujar Muhammad Isa Ansyari SS.

Masa Prasejarah

Di beberapa tempat di Jakarta seperti Pasar Minggu, Pasar Rebo, Jatinegara, Karet, Kebayoran, Kebon Sirih, Kebon Nanas, Cawang, Kebon Pala, Rawa Belong, Rawa Lefe, Rawa Bangke, ditemukan benda-benda pra sejarah seperti kapak, beliung, gurdi, dan pahat dari batu. Alat-alat tersebut berasal dari zaman batu atau zaman neolitikum antara tahun 1000 SM. Jadi, pada masa itu sudah ada kehidupan manusia di Jakarta.

"Dan seperti daerah latnnya, di Jakarta juga ditemukan prasasti. Prasasti Tugu ditemukan di Cilineing. Prasasti itu sarat informasi tentang Kerajaan Tarumanegara dengan Raja Purnawarman. Menurut prasasti itu, Jakarta merupakan wilayah Kerajaan Tarumanegara, kerajaan tertua di Puiau Jawa, di samping Bogor, Banten, Bekasi sampai Citarum di sebelah timur dan Giaruten," kata Muhammad isa Ansyari SS.

Kronologis Peristiwa Penting

Pada 686 Masehi. Kerajaan Tarumanegara hancur akibat serangan balatentara Kerajaan Sriwijaya. Abad ke-14, Jakarta masuk ke wilayah Kerajaan Pakuan Pajajaran yang sering disebtit Kerajaan Pajajaran, atau Kerajaan Sunda. Kerajaan Pajajaran memiiiki enam petabuhan, diantaranya pelabuhan Sunda Kalapa. Kota pelabuhan ini terletak di Teluk Jakarta - di muara sungai Citiwung - yang merupakan pusat perdagangan paling penting seiak abad ke-12 hingga ke-16.

Senin, 21 Agustus 1522. Begitu pentingnya, Sunda Kalapa tak luput dari incaran orang-orana Portugis yang sejak tahun 1511 sudah bercokol di daratan Malaka. Keinginan mereka mendapatkan sambutan baik dari Raja Pajajaran. Selain berkepentingan soal perdagangan, Raja Pajajaran juga bermaksud meminta bantuan orang-orang Portugis dalam menghadapi orang-orang Islam, yang sudah banyak pengikutnya di Banten dan Cirebon. Demak, kala itu, sudah menjadi pusat kekuatan dan penyebaran agama Islam.

Perjanjian kerjasama pun ditandatangani antara Raja Pajajaran dan orang Portugis. Isinya orang Portugis ditzinkan mendirikan benteng di Sunda Kalapa, yang ditandai di tepi sungai Ciliwung. Rabu 22 Juni 1527. Perjanjian itu tak dapat diterima Demak, Kerajaan Islam yang saat itu sedang berada di puncak kejayaan.

"Sultan Demak mengirimkan balatentaranya, yang dipimpin sendiri oleh menantunya, Fatahillah. Pasukan Fatahillah berhasil menduduki Sunda Kalapa pada 1527. Tatkala armada Portugal datang, pasukan Fatahillah menghaneurkannya. Sia-sia armada Portugal itu hengkang Ke Malaka," ujar Muhammad Isa Ansyari SS.

Dengan kemenangan itu Fatahillah menggantt nama Sunda Kalapa menjadi Jayakarta. Artinya "Kemenangan Berjaya”. Itulah peristiwa bersejarah yang ditetapkan sebagai 'hari jadl' Kota Jakarta. Kekuasaan Jayakarta akhirnya berada di tangan Fatahillah, dan makin meluas sampai ke Banten menjadi Kerajaan Islam.

Tahun 1595. Cornells de Houtman dan anak buahnya tiba di perairan Banten. Orang-orang Belanda itu datang mencari rempah-rempah. Persaingan di antara mereka makin ketat dibumbui permusuhan.

Rabu 20 Maret 1602 seorang token dan negarawan Kerajaan Belanda, Johati van Oldenbarneveld, mengambil suatu prakarsa mengumpulkan para pedagang Belanda dalam suatu wadah. Berdirilah serikat dagang Verenigde Oost Indische Compaqnie atau VOC. VOC merupakan wadah konglomerat zaman dulu.

Tahun 1617. Orang-orang Kerajaan Belanda diizinkan berdagang di Jayakarta. Mereka memperoleh sebidang tanah di sebelah timur sungai Ciliwung, di perkampungan Cina. Di situ mereka membangun kantor dan benteng. Kubu pertahanan Kerajaan Belanda itu tak disukai orang Jayakarta, Banten maupun Kerajaan Inggris. Mereka kemudian berperang.

Tahun 1619. Terjadi pertempuran sengit segitiga antara Kerajaan Belanda, Kerajaan Inggris dan Kerajaan Portugal di pelabuhan Sunda Kalapa. Suasana Teluk Jayakarta itu sekejab menjadi merah api dan merah darah. Di laut teluk banyak bergelimpangan mayat-mayat serdadu Kerajaan Belanda dan Kerajaan Portugal setelah kedua negara kerajaan itu habis digempur pasukan laut Kerajaan Inggris. Inggris menang dalam perang itu.

Kamis, 30 Mei 1619, JP Goen menaklukkan kembali sekaligus menguasai Jayakarta. Saat itu armada Kerajaan Inggris sudah tidak ada lagi karena telah berangkat berlayar menuju Australia, meninggalkan Jayakarta. Sedang armada (laut Kerajaan Portugal pergi menuju ke wilayah ujung timur Nusantara, tepatnya di Timor Timur.

"Jayakarta pada tahun tersebut memasuki lembaran baru. Nama Jayakarta diubah Kerajaan Belanda menjadi Batavia. Nama Batavia ini berasal dari nama Batavieren, bangsa Eropa yang menjadi nenekmoyang Kerajaan Belanda," tukas Muhammad Isa Ansyari SS.

VOC mula-mula menjadikan Batavia sebagai pusat perdagangan dan pemerintahan. Dengan kepiawaian kompeni lewat intrik dan politik adu domba atau cfewtte et impera terhadap raja-raja di Nusantara. Seluruh wilayah Nusantara dijarahnya. Kejayaannya pun berlangsung cukup lama.

Tahun 1798. VOC jatuh dan dibubarkan. Kekuasaan, harta benda dan utangnya yartg 134,7 juta gulden diambil alih Pemerintahan Kerajaan Belanda. Rabu, 1 Januari 1800, Indonesia sejak itu diperintah langsung oleh Pemerintah Kerajaan Belanda. Suatu majelis untuk urusan jajahan Asia lalu didirikan.

Namun, awal Maret 1942, Kerajaan Jepang merebut kekuasaan dari Kerajaan Belanda pada Perang Dunia ke-2. Nama Batavia dikubur balatentara Kerajaan Jepang. Dan, nama Jakarta menggantikannya sampai sekarang.

Asal Mula Nama Yogyakarta

"JOGJAKARTA" Nama kota Yogyakarta memiliki sejarah yang panjang. Dimulai dari sejarah alas Paberingan yang pertama kali dimanfaatkan oleh Panembahan Hanyakrawati (RM Jolang) raja kedua Mataram II (1601-1613) yang menggantikan Panembahan Senopati Ing Ngalaga (1586-1601) dan kemudian menjadi kawasan yang selalu terpilih dan muncul melalui wisik yang diterima oleh beberapa raja-raja Mataram berikutnya. Kata Yogyakarta sendiri merupakan pergeseran lafal (pengucapan) dari kata bahasa Jawa Ngayogyakarta, bentukan dari dua kata ngayogya dan karta. Kata ngayogya dari kata dasar yogya artinya pantas, baik. Ngayogya artinya menuju cita-cita yang baik dan karta artinya aman, sejahtera. Ngayogyakarta artinya mencapai kesejahteraan (bagi negeri dan rakyatnya). Nama tersebut bukan diciptakan oleh pendiri Keraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat yakni Pangeran Mangkubumi (Sultan Hamengku Buwono I), tetapi telah dicita-citakan kurang lebih 37 tahun sebelumnya oleh paman buyutnya, yakni Paku Buwana I (Pangeran Puger, adik Amangkurat I), raja ke-2 Keraton Kartasura. Situs pusat keraton Mataram II yang pertama terletak di Ngeksigondo yang masih dapat kita saksikan sisa-sisa bangunan terbuat dari bata dan nama-nama kawasan yang hingga kini tetap digunakan seperti Banguntapan, Kanoman, Gedong Kuning, Gedong Kiwa, Gedong Tengen, bekas Pemandian Warungbata, Winong, Sar Gedhe (jadi Kota Gede), Kompleks Makam Senopaten dan sebagainya yang tersebar sejak 1 kilometer sebelah utara hingga selatan Kota Gede. Dan alas Paberingan yang terletak sekitar 5 kilometer sebelah barat Ngeksigondo, pada masa pemerintahan Panembahan Hanyakrawati telah dibangun menjadi hutan rekreasi raja berpagar keliling bambu (krapyak) untuk perburuan kijang, dinamakan alas Krapyak. Di situ pula Hanyakrawati terluka parah hingga akhirnya wafat, dibunuh oleh pejabat istananya sendiri Pangeran Wiramenggala (Kyai Ageng Bengkung). Atas peristiwa itulah Hanyakrawati dikenal sebagai Panembahan Seda Krapyak. Konon menjelang akhir pemerintahan Sunan Amangkurat I -Tegal Arum (1646-1677) mendapat wisik bahwa alas Paberingan kejatuhan wahyu keraton. Sehingga ia bermaksud memindahkan keraton Ngeksigondo ke hutan tersebut, telah dimulai dengan membangun betengnya. Calon keraton itu akan dinamakan Garjitawati yang berarti osiking raos ingkang sejatos (kata hati yang murni). Rencana itu tidak berlanjut sebab Keraton Mataram keburu direbut Pemberontak Trunojoyo yang didukung rakyat, menentang Amangkurat I yang mengakui kedaulatan Kumpeni dan bertindak kejam membantai 6.000 Santri Giri dan juga kerabat dekatnya sendiri. Dengan bantuan pasukan Banyumas dan Bagelen/Kebumen pemberontakan Trunojoyo dapat ditumpas dan Amangkurat Jawa (P Anom Amral) bertahta bergelar Amangkurat II-Amral (1677-1678). Kotaraja yang rusak dipindah ke Kreta (yang artinya aman, sejahtera). Pada tahun 1703 Amangkurat III-Sunan Mas memindahkan Kotaraja ke Kartasura (1703-1704). Pada masa pemerintahannya Sunan Paku Buwana I (P Puger, 1704-1719) bermaksud melanjutkan cita-cita Amangkurat I membangun kembali calon kraton Garjitawati dan akan dinamakannya Ngayogyakarta. Namun sebelum niat itu terlaksana, PB I keburu wafat, digantikan Amangkurat IV (1719-1727). Penggantinya, Paku Buwana II memindahkan keraton Kartasura ke Surakarta (1745-1749) setelah Pemberontakan Pacina ditumpas Kawasan alas Paberingan dibangun menjadi Kadipaten Mataram di bawah T Jayawinata. Pada tahun 1746 P Mangkubumi diberi mandat PB II untuk meneruskan keberadaan keraton Jawa sebab Surakarta akan menjadi milik Kumpeni sesuai Perjanjian Panaraga. Pada tahun ketiga Pemberontakan Mangkubumen, dalam suatu pertempuran melawan pasukan gabungan Surakarta-Kumpeni, P Mangkubumi terdesak hingga lereng Gunung Merapi, namun atas kegigihan senapati andalannya, T Rangga Wirasetika, akhirnya dapat merebut Kadipaten Mataram. T Jayawinata takluk dan menjadi pengikutnya. P Mangkubumi tinggal beberapa lama di Kadipaten itu, dan ketika diserang oleh pasukan Surakarta-Kumpeni, sebelum meninggalkan Mataram seluruh kadipaten seisinya dihan-curkan terlebih dahulu agar tidak dimanfaatkan oleh kekuasaan Surakarta-Kumpeni Cita-cita Paku Buwana I itu akhirnya bisa diwujudkan oleh P Mangkubumi (Sultan Hamengku Buwana I) pada tahun 1756, setahun setelah Perjanjian Giyanti ditandatangani (1755). Alas Paberingan dibangun secara bertahap menjadi kompleks keraton dan dinamakannya Keraton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat, lengkap dengan segala taman-tamannya seperti Taman Sari, Kali Larangan untuk mengisi Segaran dengan Pulau Kenanga di tengahnya yang dinamakan Yasa Kambang, dan Panggung Krayak di luar benteng keraton seperti yang kita saksikan sekarang. Arsitek yang ditugasi membangun adalah T Mangundipura.

Beginning Solo (Surakarta)

Solo, or Surakarta, is the name of a town in Central Java province, Indonesia. It is located on a strategic path, the path of the direction that brings Jakarta to Surabaya or Bali, from the direction of Semarang and Yogyakarta to Surabaya and Bali, or vice versa.

The city's history began when the kingdom (Kraton) Kartasuro has suffered severe damage due to the war between the king (Sunan Pakubuana / PB II) and Sunan Yellow (1742). Thanks to the help of VOC, PB II can retake the palace Kartasura. Of course, such assistance is not free but at the expense of some heritage areas Mataram to be given to VOC.

Besides it has also resulted in the destruction of the rebellion palace buildings. The destruction of the palace buildings assessed have eliminated the magic palace because the rebels had entered into the palace, so as to affect the prestige and authority of the kingdom, therefore it is not right that continues to maintain Kartasuro palace as the seat of government or capital of the kingdom of Mataram.

Starting from there, the PB II narapraja appoint some of them: Tumenggung Honggowongso, Pringgoloyo Duke, Duke Sindurejo, Tumenggung Mangkuyudo, Tumenggung Pusponegoro, Ngabei Yosodipuro, Mayoor Hogengdarp, which is then coupled with Prince Wijil, Tumenggung Tirtiwigunio, Kyai Caliph Buyut and Penggulu Fekih Ibrahim, to find a place that would serve as a center pemeritahan kingdom.

After making odyssey to various places, the narapraja eventually found three places or villages namely Kadipala, Sala village, and the village of Sana Sewu, which could serve as the center of the new government. After negotiations, the village of Sala finally chosen for submission to Sunan PB II as the center of the new palace of Mataram. Sala village which is located about 10 Km east of the city Kartasuro.

Majesty approved the proposal, which later by the King Sunan Paku Buana II named Surakarta Sultanate. On Wednesday the 17th of Shura in 1670 or February 17, 1745, move the king Sunan Paku Buana II of Kartasuro to Surakarta Sultanate, the transfer is carried out with a massive procession. So since then capital of Mataram Kingdom moved from Kartasuro to Surakarta Sultanate. The event is then used as the basis for the birth of the city of Solo.

From the village of Sala is the administrative center of the Mataram kingdom is run and controlled. Referred to as the village of Sala, because in the village there lived a wise community leader named Kyai SALA. Besides this village too swampy and filled with Sala trees are trees or indigo tom, but there is also a mention similar sala tree pine trees.

Although originally named Sala (use letters a), but in its development, change and more familiarly called Solo (use the letter o), this occurs because an error occurred in the name of the Dutch city because they are not as flexible as the tongue is the tongue of Indonesia. Since then then not only foreigners, but also the people of Indonesia was called by SOLO. The mention of this was easier pronounced, digestible and has a deeper meaning than the typical official name.

Name Surakarta Sultanate became overshadowed as compared to Solo because of his name-giver, Pakubuwono II, who was pro-colonial.
