According to Portuguese sources, Sunda Kalapa is owned by one of the ports except the port of Sunda kingdom of Bantam, helter, Cigede, Tamgara and Cimanuk. Sunda Kalapa that in this text called Kalapa considered the most important ports because it can be reached from the capital city of the kingdom which is called by the name Dayo (in modern Sundanese language: dayeuh which means the capital city) within two days. Sunda kingdom itself is a continuation of the Kingdom Tarumanagara in the 5th century, so the port is estimated to have existed since the 5th century and is thought to be the capital Tarumanagara called Sundapura.
