Sitopayan II inscription is an inscription written in Proto Batak language^[1] and using Old Batak characters.^[1] The inscription was found at the Biaro (temple) Si Topayan, in Sitopayan village, Portibi District, North Padang Lawas Regency, North Sumatra Province, Indonesia.^[1]^[2] The inscription consists of two short lines, written on a horizontal side of the base of a stone idol.^[2] F.D.K. Bosch thought that this inscription was made in the 13th century CE, based on the shape and characteristics of the script.^[2]

The inscription mentioned four people who built a vihara for a king, whose names were Pu Sapta, Hang Buddhi, Sang Imba, and Hang Langgar.^[2] The mentioning of three articles Hang, Sang, and Pu (Mpu) in the people names also reflects the characteristic habit of a Malay speaking people.^[1]

Researcher Robert von Heine Geldern suspected that the writing on this inscription is a form of early Batak script. the writing is considered the earliest example of Batak writing, and may have a close relationship with the writings of the people in the interior of Sumatran mountains. Goris (1930) also speculated that the names of Sapta, Buddhi, Imba, and Langgar might be a chandrasangkala (chronogram), representing the numbers 7, 5, 1, and 1, which rises the suspicion that the Si Topayan temple and its surrounding area were built in 1157 Saka (1235 CE).^[2]

Currently, the inscription is stored in the North Sumatra State Museum, with the inventory number 1517.2.^[2]
