A long time ago, before Tanah Melayu became Malaysia, Negeri Sembilan was ruled by the Minangkabau, a people originally from West Sumatra (in present-day Indonesia). There's a system called Adat Perpatih that was introduced by a leader named Datuk Perpatih Nan Sebatang. Local people believe that long ago, this mountain used to be a place where these people gathered and selected their leader. There are also a footprints at the summit which represent the legendary warrior called Hang Tuah. Myths (Hikayat, in Malay) state that he used to move from one place to another just by jumping from mountain to mountain.
