Tenggarong (Indonesian pronunciation: [təŋˈɡarɔŋ], abbreviated: TRG)[3] is a district as well as the capital of the Kutai Kartanegara Regency, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. As of 2023, it was inhabited by 114,039 people, and currently has a total area of 423.92 km2. Its district seat is located at the village of Timbau.[2]
History
[edit]The former Kutai Kartanegara Sultanate's capital was likewise located in Tenggarong.[4] Historically, the then capital was called Tepian Pandan. At some point, the Kutai Kartanegara Sultan, Aji Muhammad Muslihuddin, changed the name from Tepian Pandan to Tangga Arung (literally the house of the king). In application, the people of Kutai would then shorten this name by combining the two words Tangga Arung to Tenggarong.[4]
Tenggarong became the capital of the Special Region of Kutai (and then Kutai Regency) since late 1956. Previously, Samarinda held this status from 1950 until 1956.[5][6] On November 1964, following the release of a local decree, parts of Tenggarong were separated to form Sebulu (and later inaugurated on 12 May 1965).[7] On 11 June 1996, Tenggarong Seberang was again split from the district.[8]
