III The Gowa chronicle 41<br />

Makkoayang.<br />

Tumamenang ri Makkoayang died. 117 [Tunijalloq] ruled with his wife.<br />

[For thirteen years <strong>and</strong> eight months they ruled.] 118 When he first ruled, a<br />

great famine struck. It lasted three years. Just fifty sheafs of rice was the price<br />

of a black [water buffalo].<br />

During his reign were the first carved houses, Makassarese forging knives,<br />

supervised blowdart makers. There were the first writers, chroniclers, ornamenters<br />

of fine gold. 119 He erected a mosque for traders who came to live in<br />

Mangallekana <strong>and</strong> ordered them to make the haj.<br />

This was the karaeng who first made I Daeng ri Mangallekana tumailalang,<br />

I Daeng ri Tamacina sabannaraq, 120 I Daeng ni Sambe anrong guru of the<br />

tumakkajannang <strong>and</strong> the anaq buraqne. 121<br />

I Daeng ri Mangallekana died. Karaeng ri Maros became tumailalang with<br />

I Daeng ri Tamacina’s help. The personal name of Karaeng ri Maros was I<br />

Yunyiq. His royal name was I Daeng Mangemba. Daeng ri Tamacina was<br />

called I Painyong. His royal name was I Kare Paeso.<br />

It was also this karaeng who befriended the Javanese, crossed over to<br />

Karasanga, to Johor, crossed over to Melaka, crossed over to Pahang, crossed<br />

over to Balambangang, crossed over to Patani, crossed over to Banjar, went<br />

east to Maluku.<br />

During the karaeng’s rule all the Bugis transformed <strong>and</strong> created the<br />

Tallumbocco. 122 The ruler of the people of Soppéng was I Lamattang. The gallarrang<br />

was called Pulipuya. The Arung Matoa of Wajoq was I Lamangkace. His<br />

royal name was I Todama. His posthumous name was Matinroa ri Kannana.<br />

The Arumpone was called I Laenca, the younger sibling of Bongkanga. 123<br />

He married one from Timurung <strong>and</strong> had children: Tumatinroa ri Talloq <strong>and</strong><br />

Makkalarua. His posthumous name was Matinroa ri Aqdenenna. He was<br />

also called Ampadae Salassiqna. Inside Macciniq, before Suang, the Bugis<br />

reformed <strong>and</strong> returned back home. Then said the people of Wajoq <strong>and</strong> the<br />

people of Soppéng, ‘Why? We will pursue, we will kill them all.’ Then said<br />

the Arumpone, ‘Be happy in your hearts: your heads are still on your shoulders.’<br />

Tunijalloq journeyed back here. In Porampi a palanquin was summoned<br />

to go to Karaeng ri Maros. Then he was borne there <strong>and</strong> together Tunijalloq<br />

made a pledge with Karaeng ri Maros, saying, ‘As long as your descendants<br />

rule my descendants too will you appoint tumailalang.’<br />

Afterwards, ordered to accompany Datua ri Gulawang out from here were<br />

the people of Boné. They were ordered to accompany [27v] the Arumpone.<br />

Forbidden to come closer on their journey until past Samanggi, they returned<br />

to their communities. 124<br />
