The kingdom of Bukit Standing in the XV century is located above a flat hill, 2 kilometers away from the town of Takengon. now called Kampong Bebesen. His first king was named "Sengeda" (1610 AD). According to the version of John R.bowen in his book "Sumatran Politics and Poetis, Gayo History 1900-1989" that the founder of the Kingdom of the Hill is "Saeda" The founder of the hill, saeda (sengeda in other versions) came into being in the vilange of Serule. founder of Kerajan Bukit is named Saeda (Sengeda in another version), coming from Kampong Serule.

Furthermore, John R. Bowen, also said that "the Sultan of Aceh Showed favor on Saeda, named him ruler of the hill, and gave him five royal daggers. Saeda married two moment from Aceh. the first bore him 2 sons who became lesser rulers in Bukit. the second brought two sons with her: Menet, who became the Edge of Hill, and Mpus Kolaq, who was the first person in mountain line. she then bore him to sons: Old Red, and Commander of the Trade War.

sentence above, it can be understood that the Sultan of Aceh to pay attention to Saeda's prowess in leading the Kingdom of Bukit, he was given five great kingdoms. Saeda edited two girls from Aceh. The first wife had two children who later became government affairs on the Hill. the second wife brought two children, Menet who later became Reje in the Hill, and Mpus Kolaq as King of the Mountain. The first two sons of his first wife were the Old Red and Commander of the Trade War.

in another source it is explained that this Sengeda edited the Widow named Cut Meurah Ati Putri T. Cik Ahmad from the kingdom of Meureudu Aceh Pidie, who has two sons namely Empus Kolaq and Commander of Trade War. before iy married Reje Sengeda promised his second wife and stepson, will be the King of the Hill "Lah" and Menet will become King of the Hill "Iwih. But these little kings were submissive under the authority of the King of the Hill "Sengeda".

at that time, the territory of the powers of the little kings, the spaces of which were still limited, the inhabitants were very small, while the area was so wide that there was intermingling between them, there were clans under the command of a prince and a representative or King Bedel Hill.

mount heights eminence swell knap eminency elevation although they mingle with one another, the inhabitants care for each other, each problem being resolved by way of the deliberation of the Sarakopat institution. at that time there was not one problem that Sarakopat could not solve, Sarakopat actually functioned to perform the mandate given by Allah Almighty. for the sake of the people.

All issues of the people, whether in the form of violation, irregularities, fights, deeds that violate Sumang (discordant) can be solved by Sarakopat, based on Shari'a Islam and Gayo customs.
