Lamuri, Lamri, or Lambri was a kingdom in northern Sumatra, recorded from the 9th century until the early 16th century. The area was inhabited by a Hindu population around the seventh century. There is also evidence of Buddhism. The region is also thought to be one of the earliest places of arrival of Islam in the Indonesian archipelago, and in its later period its rulers were Muslims.
