Abstract

Abstrak. Pada saat masyarakat penutur bahasa Austronesia datang di Kepulauan Indonesia, kawasanini bukanlah suatu daerah kosong tidak berpenghuni. Beberapa pulau di Kepulauan Indonesia telahdihuni oleh populasi lain. Akibat adanya kontak antar-komunitas tersebut mengakibatkan prosesadaptasi, inovasi, dan interaksi budaya yang khas sebagaimana tercermin pada perkembanganteknologi alat kerang, teknologi pelayaran dan domestikasi hewan yang dikuasai masyarakat penuturbahasa Austronesia. Tahapan proses migrasi masyarakat penutur bahasa Austronesia di KepulauanIndonesia dapat dirangkum sebagai berikut: terjadi intrusi budaya baru di Kepulauan Indonesia yangdibawa oleh Austronesia. Akibat dari peristiwa tersebut, terjadi perkembangan budaya Neolitik diKepulauan Indonesia, disebabkan oleh adaptasi, evolusi dan interaksi antara masyarakat pendatangAustronesia dengan komunitas Non-Austronesia yang telah menghuni kawasan ini sejak masasebelumnya. Interaksi antar-budaya yang intensif menyebabkan integrasi budaya Austronesia danNon-Austronesia di Kepulauan Indonesia. Abstract. Austronesian Migration and Its Implication on Cultural Development in IndonesianArchipelago. When Austronesian language speakers came to Indonesian Archipelago, this regionis not an empty place but had already inhabited by other population. The unique processes ofadaptation, innovation, and culture interaction of Austronesian people in this new region arereflected on the development of shell tool technology, navigation technology, plant cultivation andanimal domestication. In summary, the stages of Austronesian migration in Indonesian Archipelagoare as follows: Intrusion of a new culture that was brought to the Indonesian Archipelago by theAustronesian people, which caused innovation of Neolithic culture in Indonesian Archipelago due tocultural adaptation, evolution, and interaction between the Austronesian speakers (the newcomers)with the indigenous Non-Austronesian communities. Intensive inter-cultural interactions havecreated a cultural integration between the Austronesians and Non-Austronesians in the IndonesianArchipelago.

Abstract

Abstract. Old Settlement in Way Sekampung Area, Lampung, during The Śrivijaya Period. Lampung had a Śrivijaya Empire. The inscriptions of Palas Pasemah, Bungkuk, and Batu Bedil are an inscriptions of the Śrivijaya Kingdoms. Inscriptions, especially inscriptions warning, definitely placed at the residential location. In addition to the location of the inscription, the settlement can be traced through the distribution of archaeological remains which have the same background with the inscription. Through spatial archaeological approaches settlement and community life along the Way Sekampung can be determined. Along the river there are two regions upstream and downstream areas. Upstream region end to be the Hindu community while downstream is a Buddhist society. Both groups are still running religious megalithic culture. Abstrak. Lampung pernah menjadi bagian dari wilayah kekuasaan Śriwijaya. Hal ini ditandai oleh temuan Prasasti Palas Pasemah, Bungkuk, dan Batu Bedil yang merupakan prasasti dari masa Śriwijaya. Prasasti, terutama prasasti peringatan, pasti ditempatkan di areal permukiman. Selain lokasi prasasti, kawasan permukiman dapat dilacak melalui tinggalan arkeologis. Melalui pendekatan arkeologi keruangan dapat diperoleh gambaran tentang pola permukiman di sepanjang aliran Way Sekampung. Pada dasarnya kawasan di sepanjang sungai dapat dibedakan menjadi kawasan hulu dan hilir. Kawasan hulu cenderung merupakan kawasan masyarakat penganut Hindu, sedangkan di hilir merupakan masyarakat penganut Buddha. Pada kedua permukiman kelompok masyarakat tersebut juga terdapat jejak religi budaya megalitik.

Abstract

Abstrak. Analisis Deskriptif Alat Batu Palaeolithik dari Sulawesi, Hasil Ekspedisi Indonesia-Belanda pada tahun 1970.Studi ini menganalisis artefak temuan ekspedisi Indonesia-Belanda di tahun 1970 di Marale di hulu dan Beru di hilir Sungai Wallanae; termasuk menguji hipotesis bahwa penghalusan material kasar di hilir terjadi pada artefak kecil. Batu gamping, kersikan, dan rijang merupakan bahan yang dominan. Artefak umumnya mengalami abrasi dan pembundaran dari tingkat moderat hingga kuat. Hampir semua artefak terpatinasi. Teknik ‘crushing’ merupakan tipe dominan dari persiapan bidang dorsal dekat dataran pukul. Dataran pukul umumnya datar dan ujung distal tipis. Himpunan serpih Marale yang umumnya lebih lebar dan panjang dibandingkan himpunan serpih Beru mendukung hipotesis tersebut. Kebanyakan alat serpih merupakan serut samping. Sebagai tambahan, berdasarkan klasifikasi morfologi yang baru diperkenalkan, umumnya batu inti (70%) memiliki platform tunggal, berbentuk pyramidal atau polihedral, walaupun ada yang double platform. Perkiraan pertanggalan van Heekeren dari 200 dan 100 ka agaknya tepat, sebagaimana publikasi van den Bergh yang mempertanggal artefak in situ dari ekskavasi di daerah yang sama di antara 194 dan 118 ka.Abstract.This study analysis lithic artefacts collected by the Indonesian-Dutch expedition to Sulawesi in 1970. In addition, the hypothesis was tested that downstream fining of coarse material results in smaller artefacts. The artefacts were collected by surveying in Marale (upstream) and Beru (downstream) along the Walanae River. Most artefacts were abraded and rounded. Almost all artefacts were patinated. Silificied limestone and chert were the predominant raw materials for making stone tools. Crushing was the predominant type of dorsal face preparation near the striking platform. The dominant platform type was plain and the dominant distal end feather. The width and the maximal length of the flakes of Marale were significantly larger than those of Beru, confirming the above hypothesis. Most flake tools were side scrapers. In addition to the functional standard classification also a new morphological classification was introduced. Most cores (70%) were single platformed, pyramidal or polyhedral, but also double platformed cores were present. Dating of the stone tools between 200 and 100 ka as earlier suggested by van Heekeren might be plausible based on a recently published study by van den Bergh (2016) who dated in situ artefacts excavated in the same region between 194 and 118 ka.

Administratively the Tan ah Merah Cave is a part of Ta milaow Village, Amahai District, Central Maluku Regency (Seram Island), in the Province of Maluku. Theexploration is conducted at Paliya Hill, a limestone hilly area that form elongated along the the Seram Island. The landscape consists of the following morphological units: lowland, weak wary land, andkarts. The rivers that flow in that area show old-mature river stadium, dendritic drying pattern, and periodic/permanent rivers. Based on petrological analysis, the rock found in Amahai are limestone (reef limestone), schist, slate, and alluvial. The exploration of karst caves in Amahai area reveals theoccurrence of ten caves. Excavation was carried out at Ta nah Merah Cave, opened three test pits. The caves in this area are generally in form of corridors with underground rivers and quite extensive space, as well as quite good humidity and pH However, there are no trace of human habitations. Two of the caves, Akohi and Batu Meja, have very beautiful ornaments, and are might have prospective to be developed into tourism objects.
