I wonder, what was the civilisation in North Sumatra before the Hindu colonisers arrived 2000 years ago?

Loved the article and in face enjoy all the ones you write. So educational too. Indians are die hard when it comes to assimilation and adjustment. The combined operative word being jugard ! Cheers !
