Singapore was the site of a Malay fishing village at the mouth of the Singapore River. In the 11th century A.D, Prince Sang Nila Utama first landed on Singapore's shores, he sighted a mystical beast which he later learnt was a lion. The Prince then decided to name the island "Singapura" which in Sanskrit means Lion (Singa) City (Pura). The fish tail of the Merlion symbolises the ancient city of Temasek and represents Singapore's humble beginnings as a fishing village.
