		The region came under the influence of the Sumatran kingdom of Sri Vijaya in the 7th and 8th century, followed by a period during which Kedah was dominated by the Thai states to the north.

		In the Bujang Valley are the sprawling remains of a Hindu kingdom believed to date back to the 6th century A.D. Like Malaysia's other states, Kedah has its share of rich cultural traditions, songs and dances.
