They were led by the mariner [[Zheng He]], who led [[Treasure voyages|several expeditions to southeastern Asia]] between 1405 and 1430.{{sfn|Ma|2005|p=115}} These traders settled along the northern coast of [[Java]], but there is no further documentation of their settlements beyond the 16th century. Scholars believe that the Chinese Muslims became absorbed into the majority Muslim population,{{sfn|Tan|2005|p=795}} until no Chinese communities remained when the Dutch arrived.{{sfn|Reid|2001|p=33}} Trade from China was re-established when it legalised private trade in 1567 and began licensing 50 [[Junk (ship)|junks]] a year. Distinct Chinese colonies emerged in ports throughout the archipelago, including the pepper port of [[Banten]].{{sfn|Reid|1999|p=52}}
