Banyuwangi Regency History


Banyuwangi Regency History


            Historical data is available, throughout history Blambangan presumably dated December 18, 1771 is the oldest historical events that should be appointed as the anniversary of Banyuwangi. Before the war Puputan Bayu peak is actually no other events that preceded it, which also heroic-patriotic, that the attack on the fighters under the command of Prince Blambangan Puger (son Wong Supreme Willis) to Banyualit VOC fort in 1768.

But unfortunately these events are not recorded in full pertanggalannya, and besides it was impressed that in the attack we lost total, while the enemy is hardly suffered any loss. On this occasion the Prince Puger fall, being Wong Supreme Willis, after Lateng destroyed, wounded, captured and then banished to the island of Banda (Lekkerkerker, 1923).
Based on historical data Banyuwangi name can not be separated by keajayaan Blambangan. Since the time of Prince Tawang Alun (1655-1691) and Prince Danuningrat (1736-1763), even up when Blambangan is under the protection of Bali (1763-1767), the VOC had never been attracted to enter and manage Blambangan (Ibid.1923: 1045 ).
In 1743 East Java (including Blambangan) submitted by Pakubuwono II to the VOC, the VOC was Blambangan is already his. But for the time being is still allowed as property, which will be administered at any time, when it is needed. Even when Danuningrat memina VOC assistance to escape from Bali, the VOC was not interested in looking into Blambangan (Ibid 1923: 1046).
But then after Britain established trade relations with Blambangan and set up trade offices (complex Inggrisan now) in 1766 in the small town of Banyuwangi (which at that time also called Tirtaganda, Tirtaarum or Toyaarum), then VOC immediately move to immediately seize and secure all Banyuwangi Blambangan. Generally in peprangan that occurred in 1767-1772 (5 years), the VOC did try to seize the entire Blambangan. But specifically the actual VOC compelled to immediately seize Banyuwangi, which at that time had begun to develop into a center of trade in Blambangan, who have mastered English.
It is obvious, that the birth of a place Yag later became known by the name of Banyuwangi, has become a case-purchase devastating wars, war Puputan Bayu. In the event that the UK is not entrenched in Banyuwangi in 1766, probably VOC will not rush to expansion into Blambangan in 1767. And since the war Puputan Bayu probably will not happen (peak) on December 18, 1771. Thus, there must be a relationship close war Puputan Bayu with the birth of a place called Banyuwangi. In other words, war Puputan Bayu is a part of the birth process Banyuwangi. Therefore, the determination of the date of December 18, 1771 as the anniversary of Banyuwangi actually very rational.

 LEGEND OF THE ORIGINS BANYUWANGI

         That said, the ancient region of the eastern   tip of the island of Java, whose nature is so beautiful is led by a king named King Sulahkromo. In carrying out his reign he was assisted by a Patih brave, wise, handsome named Patih Sidopekso. Sidopekso Patih wife named Sri Tanjung very good-looking, polished so as to make the King's crazy about her. In order to achieve the king's desire to entice and seduce Sri Tanjung then comes with a sly sense ruled Patih Sidopekso to perform tasks that could not be achieved by ordinary people. So firmly and courageously, without suspicion, the Patih set out to execute the command of the King. After the death of the Patih Sidopekso, obscene gestures King Sulahkromo to seduce and malign Sri Tanjung with all deceit dilakukanya. But the love of the King is not accomplished and Sri Tanjung remain firm stance, as the wife who always prayed for her husband. Furious and fiery heart of the King when his love was rejected by the Sri Tanjung.

Without thinking long, Patih Sidopekso straight to Sri Tanjung furiously and unwarranted accusations. 

              Sri Tanjung recognition innocent and honest makes the heart Patih Sidopekso getting hot anger and even the Patih with berangnya threatened to kill the loyal wife. Diseretlah Sri Tanjung into the muddy river bank and rundown. But before Patih Sidopekso kill Sri Tanjung, there is a last request of Sri Tanjung to her husband, as a proof of honesty, chastity and faithfulness he was willing to be killed and that his body was plunged into the murky river, if blood makes the river stank then he has been philandering, but if the river water smells good then he is innocent.
Patih Sidopekso no longer able to restrain himself, immediately thrust into the chest of Sri Tanjung keris. Blood splattered on the body of Sri Tanjung and died instantly. The bodies of Sri Tanjung immediately plunged into the murky river and stream it gradually became clear as glass and diffuse the fragrance, fragrance.
