According to H. Muhammad Said (1972), since the first century AD, Aceh has become an international trade route. The Port of Aceh became one of the passers by the passers. In fact, some of them later settled. The interaction of various ethnic groups then made Aceh's face more diverse. Quoted by H.M. Said (The Author of Aceh Books Throughout the Ages) Thomas Braddel notes that, in the Greek era, Europeans got the Eastern spices from the Iskandariah merchant, the largest Egyptian Bandar on the Mediterranean coast at that time. However, the spices were not original Alexandria, but they were obtained from the Arab Saba. The Saba Arabs transported the spices from Barygaza or from the coast of Malabar India and from other ports. Before being transported to their country, the spices are collected in the Port of Aceh.
Raden Hoesein Djajadiningrat in his book The Sultanate of Aceh (Translation Teuku Hamid, 1982/1983) mentions that the news about Aceh before the 16th century AD and regarding the origins of the formation of the Kingdom of Aceh is very distorted and dispersed.
HM. Zainuddin (1961) in his book Tarich Aceh and Nusantara, said that the Acehnese are included in the Malay family, namely; Mantee (Bante), Lanun, Sakai Jakun, Semang (sea people), Senui and others, originating from Perak and Pahang lands in the land of the Malay Peninsula. All these nations are closely related to the Phila nation of Babylonia and the Dravidians in the Indus river valley and Ganges, India. The Mens in Aceh originally occupied Aceh Besar, especially in Kampung Seumileuk, also called Gampong Rumoh Dua Blah. The location of the village is above Seulimum, between Jantho andTangse. Seumileuk means wide plains. Mante Nation is what continues to grow into the population of Aceh Lhee Sagoe (in Aceh Besar) which then moved to other places. After 400 AD, people began to call "Aceh" as Rami or Ramni. People from China call it lan li, lanwu li, nam wu li, and poly nan whose real name according to the Aceh language is Lam Muri. While the Malays call it Lam Bri (Lamiri). In Gerini's note, the name Lambri is a substitute of Rambri (Negeri Rama) located in Arakan (between Back India and Burma), which is a change from the title of Rama Bar or Rama Bari.

Another myth tells us that in ancient times there was a king's son who was sailing, with a shipwreck. He was stranded to the shore, under a tree that the locals called the tree of aceh. The name of the tree is then turned into the name of Aceh.
Talson tells, at one time a Hindu princess disappeared, fled from her country, but her brother later found her back in Aceh. He told the people there that the princess was aji, which means "brother". Since then the princess was appointed to be their leader, and the name aji used as the name of the region, which then gradually transformed into Aceh.
Another myth living among the people of Aceh, mentioning the term Aceh comes from an incident, the wife of a king who was pregnant, then gave birth. By the inhabitants then called ka ceh which means has been born. And, from here comes the word Aceh.
Another story tells about the character of the Acehnese who are not easily broken. This is translated from a series of words a which means no, and ceh which means to break. So, the word aceh means not broken.
Among historical and anthropological researchers, the origin of the Acehnese is from the Mantir (Mantee, Acehnese) who live in the jungle of Aceh. This tribe has characteristics and posture that is rather small compared with the people of Aceh now. This Manteu tribe is suspected to have links with Mantra tribes in Malacca, part of the Khmer people of the Indies behind
