According to some sources, the native people of Aceh are based on natives of the island of Sumatra although at this time there has been no concrete evidence about this issue, but there has been no scientific sources other mengugurkan the theory. Based on this theory, the Acehnese population comes from the descendants of the races inhabiting southeastern Asia, known as the Vedda classified as "negrito / negroid". Vedda the physical characteristics almost identical to native Australians (Aborigines), so Koentjaraningrat (an anthropologist Indonesia) called the Vedda as Austro-Melanosoid. People Vedda then spread to the east and inhabited area of Papua, South Sulawesi, Kai, Ceram, West Timor, Flores West, and continue east until the Melanesian Islands. Although generally to the east, but some have also spread to the west and inhabited the island of Sumatra. Vedda people in Sumatra to develop hand-held axes and like to eat shellfish. The proof is the presence of fossilized seashells near Langsa (Aceh), North Sumatra, Pahang, Kedah and Perak in Malaysia. Upon the arrival of the Vedda to the archipelago, followed by the arrival of two large waves of humans known as the Proto-Malays and Deutero Malays. Proto Malays are considered as a group of Polynesian Malays who migrated from South China region (now the province of Yunnan) passes Siam Indochina and then go to the islands in the archipelago. The incident occurred about 3000 years BC (BC). Currently the Proto-Malays are considered include Gayo and Alas in North Sumatra and the Toraja in Sulawesi. They introduced tools and weapons made of iron or metal. They have been doing farming activities and use outrigger boat. Rice is grown in Indonesia today carried by Deutero-Malays from the North or the Assam region of northern Burma. From there the rice is brought through the valley of the Yang-tze in the South China region, continue south to Java, Nation Deutero-Malay civilization and culture develop more advanced. Therefore they develop into tribes that exist today such as Malay, Minang, Javanese, Bugis, and others. In a further development, the Proto-Malays and Deutero Malay blend, making it difficult to distinguish. An estimated Gayo and Alas in Sumatra and Sulawesi Toraja represent the Proto-Malay. In addition to the three tribes (except Papua) put in a category Deutero-Malays). Regarding the trust. In primitive societies Aceh collection of yore has been formed by itself naturally, but at that time they were already familiar with the concept of worship. PenTuhanan undertaken by masyararakat ancient Aceh is still very simple, in which the Lord was still diverse, yet still not systematic and uniform. Over time the people of Aceh began to recognize the new credential, which is at a higher level than before and a new belief system that is more systematic and have started manganutnya en masse, and the God they already have a uniform name.
