• Peta Persempadanan Kajang (Sekitar 1850-an)

Selain Sungai Sabak Dua, Subang Hilang merupakan salah satu mercu tanda sempadan daerah Kajang sekitar tahun 1800-an: “The boundaries of Inche Lili's domain were the district of Ulu Langat from Sungei Sabak Dua upstream following the Dato' Langat's boundary and downstream following the boundary of Dato' Ali as far as Subang Hilang.” (1897: The Selangor Journal: Jottings Past and Present, Volume 5, hlm.306-307).

Setakat ini lokasi Subang Hilang belum dapat dipastikan. Terdapat beberapa kemungkinan lokasinya, seperti yang disenaraikan di bawah.

Peta persempadanan lama Selangor-Sungai Ujong, 1876. Turut ditandakan (dijelaskan lagi dengan bulatan merah), antara mercu tanda sempadan daerah Langat (Selangor) dan Kajang (Sungai Ujong) ketika itu, iaitu “Sobang Elang” (Subang Hilang). Menurut peta ini, lokasinya ke hilir lagi dari kuala Sungai Labu: “compiled from sketch surveys made by Captain Innes R E, J W Birch and D Daly, and Admiralty Charts. Lithographed under the direction of Lt. Col. R. Home C.B.R.E” (Royal Geographical Society, London; Royal Geographical Society (Great Britain), 1876: |"Map of Part of The Malay Peninsula, 1876").

Jika menurut peta ini, dan sekiranya sempadan ini kekal sehingga tahun 1930-an, kemungkinan lokasi Subang Hilang adalah di sebelah timur Kampung Labohan Dagang, sebagaimana ilustrasi peta di bawah:-

Kiri: Peta Labohan Dagang, 11/10/1930. Bersempadan dengan “District of Ulu Langat”.
Kanan: Peta Labohan Dagang, 8/2/1931
(Sumber peta-peta ini: Arkib Negara 1957/0268181W, 11/10/1930: |"RE-GAZETTING OF LABOHAN DAGANG MALAY RESERVATION IN TANJONG DUABLAS MUKIM; Description : DISTRICT OFFICER KUALA LANGAT SUBMITTED PROPOSAL ON THE RE-GAZETTING OF LABOHAN DAGANG MALAY RESERVATION WHICH WAS CONSTITUTED BY GAZETTE NOTIFICATION NO. 790 OF 9.2.1923 FOR THE APPROVAL AND PUBLICATION IN THE GAZETTE BY THE COUNCIL.").

Namun menurut G.C. Bellamy (1884: ketika itu beliau mungkin bertugas di Kuala Langat, sebelum dilantik menjadi Pemungut Cukai dan Majistret di sana pada 11 Mei 1885), dalam perjalanan ke Subang Hilang, beliau singgah di Amparan Tenang di tebing kanan Sungai Langat, ke hulu sedikit dari Kuala Labu, berdekatan dengan Simpang Ampat. Menurut catatan ini, Subang Hilang terletak ke hulu lagi dari kuala Sungai Labu:-

“Kajang
17th Sept: 1884.

Sir.
I have the honour to report that on my way to Subang Ilang on Thursday last I spent the night at a place called Amparan Tenang on the right bank of the R. Langat above K. Labu.
2. The campong is owned by a man named Mahomed Deriss who is very anxious to be made a sort of head over the Sakeis living between Subang Ilang & Sempang Ampat. He has great influence with these people who on their part entertain a great liking for him and as I think such an arrangement would be beneficial to that part of my District I beg respectfully to bring this to your notice for approval.
3. Mahomed Deriss is the son of Datoh Allee, Penghulu of Teluk Datto, in the Langat District.

I have the honour to be
Sir
Your most obedient servant
George C. Bellamy
Ag: C. of ?”

Menurut Skeat (1906), Tunggul Si jaga (berhampiran/bersamaan Bukit Tunggul) terletak ke hulu sedikit dari Subang Hilang:-

“A song of a very different sort was the Besisi Trumba or Song of Tribal Origin, which has a special interest of its own as representing an attempt on the part of this race of jungle-dwellers to keep some sort of record of their history. The Besisi who gave it me was an old man named Bedoh, of Sepang Kechil. Part of this Trumba at least seems to preserve the traditions of old tribal boundaries, and I believe it really supplies the clue to the long strings of (generally contiguous) place-names that are so often described as occurring in the songs of the Semang and Perak Sakai, The following version is a little freer than that given elsewhere in this book. … 'Tunggul Si Jaga,' the 'Stump of the Watcher,' was the name of a stump in a commanding position, near the River Langat (a little above Subang Hilang), from which a look-out used to be kept by pirates in the days when they infested the Langat River. The spot is still well known.” (Walter William Skeat, 1906: |"Pagan races of the Malay Peninsula", Vol. 2, m.s. 164-167).

Berdasarkan catatan-catatan di atas, antara kawasan-kawasan yang dilalui apabila memudiki Sungai Langat (ditandakan dengan bulatan merah dalam peta-peta 1962 & 2025 di bawah):-

1. Kuala Labu (Kuala Sungai Labu)
2. Amparan Tenang (Kg Ampar Tenang)
3. Simpang Ampat (Kg Simpang Empat)
4. Tunggul Si Jaga (Bukit Tunggul)

Perkampungan orang asli yang dinyatakan dalam catatan di atas adalah di antara Subang Hilang dengan Simpang Ampat: namun tidak dapat dipastikan sama ada ke hilir atau ke hulu dari Simpang Ampat. Maka kemungkinan lokasi Subang Hilang adalah dalam kawasan yang ditandakan sebagai bulatan kuning, iaitu sekitar Ampar Tenang hingga Bukit Tunggul:-

Atas: Kemungkinan lokasi Subang Hilang (sekitar bulatan kuning - sebelah kanan: jarak lebih dekat), berdasarkan peta 1962 (Director of National Mapping, Malaysia, 1963 @ Australian National University: |"Malaysia, Negri Sembilan, Selangor, Sepang, Series: L7010, Sheet 102, 1963, 1:63 360").
Bawah: Kemungkinan lokasi Subang Hilang (sekitar bulatan kuning - sebelah kanan: jarak lebih dekat), berdasarkan peta 2025 (Google Maps).

Kini sebahagian daripada kawasan di dalam bulatan kuning itu adalah perkampungan orang asli Temuan, iaitu Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Jenuk (Mungkin kesinambungan petempatan orang asli dalam catatan Skeat (1906) di atas?).

MAKLUMAT LANJUT: Kampung Orang Asli Bukit Jenuk, Dengkil
