🇮🇩| Comparison of the Palembang songket motif with the detailed motif of the Nandiśvara statue, c.1292.

The existence of Palembang Songket has been known since the days of the Sriwijaya Kingdom and the Palembang Darussalam Sultanate. Evidence that songket has existed since Srivijaya's heyday can be seen in statues in the Tanah Abang temple complex, Muara Enim Regency, South Sumatra. At that time, the job of making songket was a part-time business for the native people of Palembang. Songket existed at the same time as the emergence of the Palembang Darussalam Sultanate (1659-1823). Historically, the people who had the right and proper to wear songket at that time were kings or sultans and relatives of the palace.

According to the oral story that developed among the people of Palembang, the beginning of songket cloth came from Chinese traders who brought silk, Indian and Middle Eastern traders brought gold, resulting in the creation of gold-plated songket cloth in the hands of the native people of Palembang. The existence of the songket cloth tradition in Indonesia is also often associated with the prosperity and glory of the Sriwijaya Kingdom which was centered in Palembang in the 7th-13th centuries.
