The Belitung wreck was discovered south-east of Sumatra, less than two miles off the coast of Belitung Island. According to Tang and Song dynasty navigational routes, south-east Sumatra was the location of a powerful maritime state, known from Chinese sources as the Kingdom of Shilifoshi. This state controlled the Straits of Malacca to the north and the Selat Sunda Strait to the south, and as the guardian of the two main waterways linking East and West, held a key position in the Nanhai ( South China Sea) trade from the seventh to the thirteenth century.
