The relationship between the two nations began earlier in 5th century CE, marked by the coming of Hinduism and Buddhism influences from Indian subcontinent and Sri Lanka to Indonesian archipelago. The Hindu-Buddhist kingdoms of ancient Indonesia and Sri Lanka nurtured contacts in the 9th to 12th century CE, during the era of the Srivijaya Empire. During this time, Buddhism was the principal religion of both nations. According to the Sri Lankan Ambassador to Indonesia, an Indonesian king visited Sri Lanka presented a baby elephant as a gift. The interactions between them grew in the 17th and 18th centuries, as both nations fell under the control of the Dutch East India Company (VOC). Sri Lanka was part of the VOC during Dutch period in Ceylon from 1656 to 1796. In the 17th-century, Indonesia was under the control of the Dutch East India Company as well as housing the headquarters for the VOC. It later became a Dutch colony in the Dutch East Indies until World War II. During the 18th century, multiple of kings, princes, and warriors from Javanese Mataram, Madura and Sulawesi, who opposed were opposed to Dutch rule of the Indonesian archipelago were exiled to Sri Lanka.
